I didn't see anything here yet, but in case you haven't already found out, there has been a recall on the above listed (CA Models.) I know there are a number of SV riders here, so thought I would let ya'll know.

ON CERTAIN CALIFORNIA-SPECIFICATION MODEL MOTORCYCLES, REPEATED STRESS
FROM VIBRATION CAN CAUSE A CRACK TO FORM IN THE AREA WHERE THE
LIQUID/VAPOR SEPARATOR BRACKET IS WELDED INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. THIS
