Re: Can sv's swim?
Park it at the station mate if it looks like it actually will flood. You can even get it under cover if you go late at night / early morning in the push bike bit. failing that, we could tie it to 4 oil drums and make a raft!

Re: Can sv's swim?
I oiled it a week ago! It's just a losing battle against the elements if you have to keep it outside in the elements. I will do a proper clean soon I hope, as soon as the flood waters subside.

Re: Can sv's swim?
If it does flood and water gets in the engine then dont try and start it without removing the spark plugs. (water is not compressable)
