My son trailered his SV 650 to the house today, because of a radiator leak. We removed the radiator and found that the horn had come loose from it's mount and rubbed a hole in the core.
The horn is mounted with a single bolt to the LH upper radiator mount, and the bolt on this bike had disappeared.
I'm not sure if the Wee is set up this way but I would check the security of the horn on both these bikes to avoid problems.
We will be able to fix this one with some JB weld as it is a small pinhole leak.

The first two pics show the extent of the damage to the core, third pic is where the horn attaches to the radiator.
