Default Well I'm quite pleased!!

I got the SV a little while ago, and it is a bit tatty, and was in need of a service.

I've been getting stuck in and been learning about basic servicing. I got stuck with a seized rear brake caliper, but I'm getting that back from my mechanic this weekend.

I've also got 2 good replacement seat fairing panels, so all I nned now is either my tank respraying, or a quality second hand black tank!! I'm also going to polish the fork bottoms too, after reading about it on here.

This bike is actually gonna look good when I've finished

So I'm feeling quite positive at the moment.

I think I am going to need a decal kit. Can anyone advise the best place to get one? I imagine they are quite expensive from Suzuki??!!

If you'r a Newcastle dweller, then try A-Z stickers on Westgate Road. They should be able to sort you out with decals and the like.

I think i put a pic on my original intro thread....but you can't really tell how shabby the paint work is unless you are up close!

When it's back together, I'll add some pics of course!!
