Re: Service essentials??
Hi Naked.
I can really recommend searching the forum. There is also a sticky on oil which is worth a read |

You'll get most of the stuff you want here. Maybe get an OEM oil filter, they're not expensive http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/suzuki/sv_650_k2/02/

Re: Service essentials? Curvy.
Oil and Radiator fluid I use Halfords. For brake pads EBC HH, but do they need changing? Chain and sprockets JT and DID, I haven't seen much listed in way of differences.
But what about fork oil? Chances are its been a while since it was changed and will make a world of difference. Halfords again do some bottles of the stuff that I've used more than once. |
