This thread is getting too long very difficult to read... every topic all junk together. I can start a section on purely SV in STR forum... with sub section like Mods, outing, peronal review thread.

 

You guys in for it?

Engine servicing... where do you SV riders service your bike?

 

Service as in:

1 getting your Valve Clearance checked.

2 Carb Tune

 

others routine maintenance like oil change, oil filter and stuff I got a trusted mech... but as SV is not as familair bike to him, I prefer to leave it to better experince mechs...

 

Like what Runner Type R had mentioned, I did my major engine servicing at Sanfu. I can say that their chief, Ah San, is very familiar with SV's engine. He done a good job for my SV's top overhaul but their pricing can be a little steep for someone with a budget constraint. I forgot to mentioned that after my engine servicing, Ah San told me that my carbs were damaged and would require a replacement. This can be observed from the engine failed to stay idle. Now, this is a little quiz for every SV owner here... why my engine is not able to remain idling on that day when I was collecting back my bike from Sanfu. Is it really my carbuerettors are damaged? Or is it because of something else? Hee hee...

 

 

Clue: My bike was parked at Sanfu for almost a month...

U ran outta petrol

[Limsteel]

Yeoman...

 

I had ONE experience with SanFu. send DR650 in for carb tune as there is very slight occasional coughing while cruising... I wanted to get it in order for the new owner. Single cylinder, single CV carb how difficult can it be...

 

After getting it back, DR650 was in a much worst condition. went back to rectify also cannot get back the same condition I had... My bike sold at below what I wanted. And New owner told me that he "FLEW" in a new carb for other country (true or not, I donno).

 

Don't think I will go back there again. Compliment being their shop is well/properly equiped and place is neat and tidy compare to other shops they looked more professional.

[A3roSmith]

guys check this out. http://www.singaporebikes.com/forum/index....topic=64447&hl=

 

looking good, the best mods seem to be the engine undertray, frame sliders n arrow pipe. however not sure whether arrow pipe is good for this bike.

 

oh and the price.

[Metalfyre]
