DY's SV650 Project Discussion

[chinto]

some of big things i plan to do:
- complete tear down, clean, and inspect every part.
- powdercoat the frame, swingarm, bits and pieces.
- GSXR front end.
- GSXR 5.5" rear wheel conversion.
- braced swingarm.
- Koso digital gauges
- rizoma signals (still need funding for this one)

good luck with the project. The ironic thing is that the last time I saw that bike, it had a gsxr front end and a gsxr rear wheel conversion already done.

Thanks Joe. LOL. I acted too slow on this bike. The goodies were already gone by the time I talked to him.

nice. Did you get the proper steering stem bearing when you got the bike to bolt the front end on? Don't forget to take into consideration that your steering stops will not work with that setup.

Lloyd said he wanted to hang onto his set, so I ordered them from TWF. hmm..I've heard about the steering stop issue. I will probably fab something up with the old frame sliders.

I found this on TWF as well. http://www.twfracing.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=854

The steering stops on the gsxr triple needed no mods?

It almost had a zx6r front wheel installed in the rear

Lloyd was looking for a good parking spot lol
