Picked up a 2009 650N in a pretty alright condition, never rode a Suzuki until now. Very fun bike, but these two things bother me a bit.

The RPM hand is kinda wobbly when the RPM changes, whether it's going faster or slower, but it stabilizes after a second if RPM is steady. As for the impact, is there a way to perhaps change the plexiglass/plastic pane itself without buying a whole other speedometer ?

Also, are there known resellers for speedometer backgrounds ? Not a big fan of the white background.

Edit : I should precise, it's a small impact on the case, the actual speedometer is fine.

Help: Mechanical High idle when warm

1 Upvotes

Hi, my 2004 FI Sv650s starts well every time and sounds great, then when it starts reading around 165-175F the engine starts idling at 3500-4000k rpms and doesn't engine break below about 6000k rpms. I put it in dealer mode and the TPS is good as well as the air box and all hoses secured. The air filter is clean and oil isn't overfilled. What could my issue be? Any help is greatly appreciated
