Default wish i hadnt..

Compared/test rode another sv650s thats the same year/colour etc as mine..
It showed up how badly my engine is rattling and how crap my handeling feels
Had them sat side by side, dealers one was purring, mine was ratteling like a good un.
Dealers had done 21k miles, mines- 28k miles.
Mines in for her big service all next week as im on holiday so hopefully when i get back so will sound just as sweet as this one did today.

It's rattley because of the cam chain tensioners there either stuck or need replacing!
A common prob with the SV

Why not put the cost of the service towards trading in your current bike against the one the dealer has?
