KYLD guessed it! I have bought myself a SECOND SV650. a 2000 yellow S model.

I don’t know you might fall in love with it, folks on the forum seem to love their curveys. Fair bit lighter than the pointy if memory serves me right?

Mmmmm > bob and john
06/01/2016 at 19:07

Seduced by the curves? Just for shits and giggles, flipping it, other plans?

bob and john > Mmmmm
06/01/2016 at 19:15

Flipping

Awesome deal! Hopefully you get to ride it soon enough. Since you have a few SVs, I’m just wondering if you have ran into this. My SV's water pump keeps leaking even after having the gasket replaced and having silicone on it to hopefully stop the leak. The leak hasn't stopped. It just dribbles out the bottom and due to the paint missing from the case, I'm not sure whether to replace the case, just ride the damn thing, or sell it. What are your thoughts?

Is it the pump itself, or the hose leading to it?

The pump itself. Just BARELY leaking. Like, little drops every few minutes or so. Weirdly enough, it will sometimes just stop and start again out of nowhere. I don't know what to do.

You have ABS? For some reason I thought yours was a pre dualspark.

Is the pump cracked? Liquid level ok its not over filled?

bob and john > Decay buys too many beaters
06/01/2016 at 23:43

Nope. 09. Dual spark started 07. ABS was optional

I’m not sure if it is either cracked or overfilled. I’ll catch that up with you later on this week.
