I did the deal on the SV650S for the sum of ?1350 i pick the bike up tomorrow.

The bike has a couple of issues



1.) An oil leak which i believe is due to the drain plug leaking the oil may becoming from some ware else where i am not sure. A new washer may solve this?

Can anyone advise where i can get a washer from online as i have a very busy week next week and doubt ill have time to make it to a dealer.


I am currently placing my order at bikebitzuk for oil & filter combo & a Stormax cover. Do hiflo filters come with the washer i know the OE ones normaly do?



2.) the front brakes where very poor i feel the discs may be warped or at best the callipers may just require taking of and a good clean through. I had no confidence braking in the wet. This may be due to my previous bike having outstanding brembo front brakes whatver the reason something has to be done about them.
