Hi,
Other than the noise, the bike is perfect. No oil consumption, plenty of power, revs smoothly up to the red line. I would'nt worry about it except that I paid quite a bit of money for it and intend to keep her for a long time. I am impressed with the SV650S and would go so far as to say that it's just as good as the 1975 Ducati 750SS I used to have.

I'm taking her to a bike shop next week. I'll let you know what they say.

Thanks for your response.
Roy
