Just thought this would be a cool new topic. If there is already one in existence please let me know so I can delete this one, or a mod can do it. As for me I finished my under tail project and rode the crap out of it.
What did you do to your SV today? (mods, farkles, maintenance, etc)

Today I rode home from work and thought to myself "Why is this piece of crap running on only one cylinder?" It was barely raining! Certainly not enough to cause the dreaded SV325 syndrome. Frustrating. So I kicked it. That didn't help either. It just seems to do this if it thinks it may rain. Maybe I'll buy a Ninja 650 just to make it jealous.

I didn't actually do the work, the dealer did. The first time I touched the brakes, backing it up manually, it stopped so fast it through me off balance. I thought whoa, this is going to be great. The first forward stop, however, was completely disappointing.
I don't think they are glazed, I was pretty gentle with them. Again, I didn't bleed them -- the dealer should have done that, but I think I will. Maybe that will help matters.

Changed the oil and rewired my heated grips so that they actually work.

You should feel the difference from the pads. The rest... Well, the bike's too new to get much benefit from the hoses, and if the old fluid was in decent condition then the new stuff will feel no different (you might notice a difference with very hard riding, old fluid will go off faster, but day to day you won't notice)

That's my opinion also. I found the RA's for $238.00 shipped to my door. I can mount them but will need to get them balanced at a shop.
For $hits and giggles I called the local Suzuki dealer today for a price to have them do it all, drop off the bike, write them a check, and ride away.
Their price? $427.00!
End of next week I'll send for the set.;D
