if push comes to shove then countersink the hole a little and put a countersunk screw in with a good oil resistant threadlock and leave overnight then dress the head off. dont blame me if they come out though. you dont need to do anything else with other holes unless your using emulators. if i had know earlier i could have done "swap out" dampers as i have a set spare but i wont be at the workshop for a few weeks. |

Id say spend the money on the suspension then keep the bike. It will see you right for many years. Bigger better newer bikes are not really that much more fun than a well sorted sv. You will save a lot of money for petrol and going places.
