Oil Filter is called HiFlo 131 , don’t buy K&N 131 as its made in china. So i wouldn’t trust it on critical filtration of oil. Air filter some is made in china sure but oil filters i would rather use german ones or OEM .
At least the bike is running, so sounds like you’re doing a slow overhaul job!
Never seen the ropes being used that way lol, great write up!
Have you replaced the starter motor solenoid then ?
Also , try to do a continuity test on all wires to make sure nothing is shorted / broken circuit somewhere relating to the starting solenoid and the O wire as O wires tend to be live when the bike is ON.
If you see burn marks, post some pictures up 🙂
Topic locked as we responded to a duplicate one below:
If its EFi, check the manuals section of this site. Otherwise , if you don’t see it, then also check ManualsLIB website for carb versions (i’ll upload more on this website when i can)
Question I also have a GV650 EFI. Do you reckon this K&N filter fits the GV650? https://www.knfilters.co.uk/su-6503-replacement-air-filter
The airbox of the GV650 is different from the GT650, and thus the SV650 won’t even fit either sadly
Very beautiful, i hope you keep the red colour!
How was the ride so far ?
Basically the 1x coil is dodgy and needs replacing or did we miss something ?
The connectors for the coils (SPADE SHAPE) can be squeezed a tiny bit more (carefully) so it has a firm grip on the coil terminals.
Do you have a picture of the current shocks on the bike so we can see ?
Some shocks do actually get changed to custom ones by previous keepers to be fair so its hard to tell if its OEM or Generic aftermarket or some SHOWA US shocks.
Forks = The process is similar to the Suzukis with upside down forks on youtube, where it shows to also adjust the preload near the top of the forks.
Though i will say 10w vs 15w fork oil can affect how stiff or soft the forks behave , factory usually uses 5w oil but 5w can sometimes just leak and burst seals.
No oil filter ?
~That’s crazy! = Some people really are stupid and should never own a motorcycle wow!
I mean the oil filter is so common , a lot of Suzukis use it!Well done on the SS studs , very good investment , you can get “FORM A” M6 washers , they will “just about” fit inside the filter cover but washers are generally not needed in fairness.
Here in the UK, the Hyosung can restricted using restrictor kits for A2 riders.
Find a garage and tell them to use SV650 restriction kits on the Hyosung 650 carb model.
It is a little tricky to do this on EFi models but it is possible by restricting the throttle section by your local garage (sometimes the Korean factory does this for some EU markets)
One way to confirm if it is restricted is a DYNO run 🙂
Welcome to the club!
Sorry to hear this 🙁 , is there a way you can safely keep the bike indoors until you have secure storage setup ? and have dogs stand guard for you too. Just feed them steak!
I could try to find the parts you want , but send an email if you want (click contact at the bottom of this site)
I hope the rest of the bike is not too badly damaged so you can ride soon.
As per your email you sent us , the gasket is usually not included but can be ordered too. Just let us know when you’re ready
8.8 is the grade of stainless steel , the thread size is 6mm , sorry i wasnt clear , my bad.
the main advantage of the black widow headers is that the 304 stainless won’t easily crumble like the OEM pipes because we live in cold climates where stainless or titanium things are a must have 🤐🤯
Chain coversions are usually swap and go, but SV650 uses the same Principal, so youtube videos on the SV650 and use the forum’s manual for tightening torques for the GV650 specifically
Great! Great! write ups there, i think you should move these diagrams in to a tutorial section, after everything works well.
/?
I can see the car was totally covered in snow, that’s some serious winter! – Better enjoy this summer as much as you can. Is it hot now ? 20c celsius ? or do you have a heat-wave now ?Bike looks good with the Black Widow pipes!
Hey,
personally not that I know off but you can try asking an ebay seller that is making GS500 belly pans as some people use GS500 belly pans that are UK made now (i don’t know if that is Skidmarx or P+P Plastics , as i haven’t thought of it)Lol, it’s okay , this is the bike life, it’s always wise to have a garage full of backups for any situations. Unlike a car, if it breaks down, you need AA 100% and most cases you need a taxi home and the car is stuck in a garage if the clutch goes bang etc, on major things.
I’d recommend backup clutch cables , throttles cables and a small set of tools in your pannier boxes, then heaven forbid a cable snaps , then you can replace it on the road side! (A new bike? Should be OK for a long while, but as with buying used bikes, i usually overhaul everything and put the old parts in storage as backups in the future, saves the online crazy hunting you experienced) 🙂
I just literally had to send a cable to Jim from USA (he is on the forum) , rode fine to wherever he was summoned to, but something snapped on the way back home! 🤐
