I like this on the front page (http://www.sv650.org/)....

OMG what a trainwreck. It's hideous.

I don't see how this text on the webpage relates to the bike?? It seems to be the wrong way round?

''Custom bikes are usually just exercises in styling and poor taste, so it’s refreshing to see a custom build that actually improves upon the performance and looks of the donor bike''

That's just me though, if you like it that's lovely :)

add to it a 916 style fairing and it'd be the bike I was looking for back in 2001.

Cheers Mark.

Nice to see a proper special.

[Dave20046]

It's 'alright'

[yorkie_chris]

The big question. Was it built in a shed?

[dizzyblonde]

It wasn't built in a shed Chris, that thing is a shed:mrgreen:

Thanks Dave. It's very tidy. Weird place for the shock

I like it!

wimpy-looking SV
Oooh fighting talk! :lol:

I assume they mean a pointy of course ;)

[northwind]

It's ridiculously heavy though, for what it is... And I've never understood why they've build a custom frame, bodywork, fitted mad quad brakes, but stuck with the standard GSXR and SV wheels. It's a bit odd. And is that a standard exhaust system?

[thedonal]

This one looks interesting- I like the trellis swingarm.

Aye, they spent all that time and research making a trellis frame and kept the stock swingarm and used readily available OEM GSXR forks.

The SV has a great chassis straight from the factory.
