Hi guys,

I've read all of this thread with great interest because in the 4 weeks that I've had my SV650K6 my only niggle has been the on/off nature of the throttle, which, I hadn't really realised consciously until I read these posts, only really appears at low speed.

Now I am a complete newbie. This is my first bike since passing my test 6 weeks ago and I know nothing about the mechanics of bikes. All I wanted to ask is, as my bike is going in for its 600 mile service on Friday, will the TPS and idle speed be checked and reset to the suggested values automatically, or should I ask the mechanics to take a look at them?

And as someone intimated earlier, does the engine breaking effect really decrease after this mod has been done?

I'm loving the bike by the way. The weather has been pretty good and I've done 700 miles in 4 weeks. I'm glad I chose an SV rather than an ER6-n.
