    @Gavin jones I am in the U.S. so sad to say I am not much help on who is close. The two people that have good reputations I know of are Lohen and Orranje I don’t know how close they are to your location. I would give Lohen a call first. I am sure they can help. Also you may want to look into replacing it with a TVS 900 it’s a better SC but may cost more.

    It very well be the water pump making the noises you hear. The oil leaks out of it & the gears grind themselves to dust. Good luck sorting it out.

    I really need to proofread before I hit post. That’s what happens when you have not had coffee

    @Gavin jones you may want to put a 15% pulley on the SC while your at it for a little more power. Also I would replace the belt tensioner, idler pulley and belt. Check your crank pulley, if the rubber has cracks replace it. You don’t want it to fail, and they do.

    I’d also check your water pump at this time.
