Hi guys,
Got my first bike since passing otherday a nice SV 650s in great condition, well apart from this.. Bike had been stood long time before I bought it, ran fine for two days but now when its started and been warmed up, I can put the rev's on to say 3000rpm, and not move my hand but the revs slowly drop off back to idle, and if I try to put any more rev's on it stalls? Someone has told me it might be a leaky diaphragm but I had no idea what this means? Thanks |

Could you provide some more details, which model, have you done anything to it, how long was it stored for etc. Was the bike prepared for storage or just stored. |

Sorry took so long to reply, sorted it now and have been happily tootling round on it, well when the weather permits!! My mate on the corner had a look and it was misfiring cause the plugs were knackered! After changing them and flushing the oil etc, runs like a dream! Loving it!

congrats! enjoy the sv they're a great bike. When I buy a new bike i always change the oil/filter and the plugs. At least that way you know when they were actually replaced and its not the seller talkin ****e!
