Default Service intervals

Does anybody know what the service intervals are for a K5 SV650 naked (if it makes any difference).

Only reason I ask is that I'll be doing 0ver 2000 miles in 2 days later this month.
Bike is currently on 3000 miles...ish

Every 3500 miles or 12 months, which ever occurs first.

You should be alright on a naked. I can do 500 a day happily and pretty painlessly on mine.

AndyMcNab of the bike World? Or GhostRider of the MCN world?

2000 miles at an average speed of 100mph would mean 10 hours in the saddle each day. That average will drop sharply when fuel stops are required (every approx 150miles - so that's around 13 fuel stops in two days).

You may find it a tad tricky keeping the required concentration to do that distance at the speed you'll need to be going.

Good luck, but I think the service schedule of the bike is the least of your worries!!
