Hello ! I'm new to the sv650.org and new to biking!
I just bought a 2005 sv650s with 15k miles on it. It had been sitting in storage for probably over a year and a half/2 years. Before I can ride it I have to fit myself a 33bhp restrictor on it and while it's parked up and tank propped up etc are there any things in particular I should look out for/ service? Oil change maybe? If so what type/ make of oil or other parts should I buy? Any low cost mods I can add to improve the looks?

Thanks alot,

Pat
