I'd be happy to give it a go, but if I get it wrong, it could be catastrophic.
I'm going to get a quote from a local garage and take it from there.
Talking Heads - I don't think I do enough miles for fuel economy to make a difference, but then I found out today my work is moving from East to West London, so it may all change.

Yes I've just read that link and it's very good IMHO along with other info.
See what a few garages say and or do you know any other Handy bikers to help?
It would be a shame to not service a decent SV IMHO.
The other problem people have with motorcycles that have not been used is electrics but it's dead easy to clean and service the connectors using a small screwdriver with some 500 grit paper wrapped around it if need be to remove corrosion from pins/sockets and then spray with Switch cleaner(£3.99 from Halfrauds which is not a bad price) and then Treat with ACF50.
ACF50 is wonderful stuff and does more than it says on the Tin
