I did thousands of miles on both my SVs in the wet and not once did either suffer from the misfire that some report, I did regularly clean out the drain hole though, maybe that had something to do with it. I fitted a fender extender to the second one purely because someone gave me it

Fixed the bike, in more ways than one....

1. Was not fired up and when it did it sounded like only one cylinder again and had FI error on dash. Cleaned out the drainage hole on the front cylinder and gave it a squirt of WD40 as per the previous thread advice. Fired her up and started first time, error code gone and running sweet again. Amazing!!!!

2. Took off the lower fairings. Removed the old crash bung on off-side and the brackets on both sides. Replaced the bolts and fitted the R&G Bungs. Had a bit of a mare getting the main engine bolt off. A 2 man job so I did get Chris to help. Fitted the new engine bolt, adjusted the R&G Bung bracket to get it all together. Tightened all the bolt and bingo new R&G Bungs fitted.

Have left the fairings off as I want to get some new bolts as 3 out of the 4 are different. Also the near-side bung will not come off the bracket so I'm gonna try and dremel it tomorrow!!

Anyway, I good day for the spanner wielding girlie!!!! :cool::cool::cool:

So you never got me a spare bung then? :cry:
