Default Hein Gericke Air Filters - Oil Deal

I have phoned a couple of HG shops but none have the air filter for the SV. Does anyone know if this is the norm or am I being unlucky?

I got that deal from the Portsmouth Branch no problems, Oil and Air filter. Though personaly I think the oil in the deal is a bit cack for the SV and found it made the clutch a bit heavy and cluncky.

The oil i got was motul stuff, which i use on my xr400, as recommended and bought from my Honda dealer-they use it on all the hondas they service.
costs the same from HG but got free oil filter worth £7, didn`t have air filter, but got a k&n so no problem. no clutch probs.

Same here, have been in 3 different branches...

But the nice lady at my local one always gives me an extra oil filter instead

I only got an oil filter with mine. I mentioned the air filter, but they said not only was one not part of the deal, but that they didn't carry air filters for the (pointy) SV at all.
