Re: cam chain tensioner
That's just the chains mind. Best bet is probably just to go to a suzuki dealer, they're not massively expensive. The pointy (K3-K...4? Possibly K5?) tensioners fit and seem to be better, the jury's out on that but mine have been much better than the original ones. (later pointies have an oil-fed one, we can't use those on our proper SVs)
Or, you could do what I did if the parts come along- I bought a whole pointy motor with a bad crank for £70, sold the cams to a minitwin racer for £75, the side casings and heads to someone on here, kept the tensioners, and sold the rest for scrap.
