Default Re: First three days with an SV

Sounds fairly terminal, unlucky, these types of failures are pretty rare with SV.

Firstly...wow, bad luck with that bike. But like YC said, thats a really really rare occurence. Personally, I havn't heard of that before...and I've been involved on here for years now. And as pete said, good job it was in a straight line.

You'd be unlucky to have a problem of similar magnitude on your next SV, so I think you can relax and get out riding Dealer sounds like they are good, so mention them to us and we might just not completly by-pass them
