it may help, but the covers are prone to warping, because the internal strengthening ribs on the cover melt, which causes the warp.

difficult to cure, but not impossible

My name Rich and I have an 09 Aprilia Tuono and 2002 GSXR600 track only bike but I used to be the very proud owner of an 06 SV1000s, fanflippin tastic bike which really got me in to v-twins and to be fair I reckon I would still have it had I not test rode the Tuono! All you v-twin fans on here really need to get yourselves a go on one!
The o/h is Lesley and she is now the very happy owner of a 1999 SV650s in red, lovely bike with low mileage which we picked up for, what I think was, a steal! Tho this bike is now the reason for browsing this site and now registering..

You see, turns out the slight oil leak from the clutch cover is, how can I put this, a common problem! What can I say, spent ages last night reading other threads on here regarding this so now, thanks to this site, I know that it may be better left to be what it is, a slight leak! We shall see!!.. I know which end of a spanner goes where tho so may just dive in one day and have a go

Anyhow, hello peeps and if I can work out how I shall add some photos
Hello and welcome
I have a clutch cover . Slight mark from foot . £55 posted . Came of an sv650 2001. Inbox me if interested
