Finally...
I have had lots of trouble with a bike which I bought here in Barcelona. That bike will be sold after 3 months of a lingering problem with the shop where I bought it. I posted some words about this here earlier.
But now I bought another SV650 !! A '00 black one, with splendid Metzelers, new chain, new and better seat, adjustable front springs and only 41k. km's Yesterday I went out for a ride nearby my house and I attached with ductape a video cam on the fairing. The quality is not superb but lord what a pleasure to be able to ride a bike again like this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjkEQVLKseI |

Re: Finally...
No such thing as adjustable springs... just preload
K2 had preload caps only. You can fit the K2 caps onto earlier ones too.
