Service Time - Got an unrestricted loan SV :)
 

Had the SV in for the 15000 mile service today. All went well except one of the fork seals is leaking, which is a bit annoying since I only just fitted them. Roughly how much are you looking for a new seal fitted? I really can't be bothered doing it after the amount of time it took me to put the forks on

They also said the steering bearings were tight. And after riding their loan bike and getting back on mine I see what they mean. I hadn't really noticed before but it is a little tight. So I'll need to loosen it.


They gave me a naked SV for a loan bike and it was unrestricted. WOW! what a difference, felt like a completely different bike. The power band is brilliant! With my bike its just a constant pull up until about 6000rpm where it just dies. Think I might make a slight adjustment to my bike tonight http://carnoustiebikers.co.uk/images.../icon_wink.gif
It didn't have any screen which was interesting http://carnoustiebikers.co.uk/images...s/icon_eek.gif The wind was trying to rip my lid off at higher speed!
Much prefer the higher bars though, felt weird at first, but its sooo cumfy.
