tell from your pictures but is the rear light section finished yet?

As posted up in my 'Praise the lord' thread http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=171970
New top yoke fitted, just got to fit the new clutch cover now.
Only issue I had was re - siteing the brake fluid reservior and thanks to the Gilles Variobars having a threaded hole on each clip on, it bolted on nicely.
But not before I'd tried it with the supplied Renthal bars and another pair of Renthal flat bars, before I tried using the Variobars I was using before.
Benefits of this yoke
Looks nice (IMO) :cool: Still retains the SVs look, which Renthal bars would have changed
Steering lock works now
Because the clamp bolts are different I can use the risers from the Variobars, which means that the cables & lines don't rub on the fairing now & a slightly better riding position for even better long distance comfort. Didn't need to change the brake lines or cables, because I didn't use the Renthal bars & risers.
Dispensed with the crappy plastic spacer ring I used to make the ignition barrel fit tight, new yoke was machined to the Sv barrel size

Yes, I did plan to, as I didn't know if I could use my Gilles bars.

high link pipe fitted to my curvy, can a tad long, but Im not keen on stubby cans, although this does need to loose a couple of inches I guess.
Bikes absolutely filthy now, and not sure if I`ll bother refitting the lowers, quite like it without lately. Still got the pointy rear end to sort, found someone to make me up a subframe, but no overtime to pay for it at the mo :(

Fitting the throttle cables was a fecking fiddly job, but I did manage to change the choke plunger screws without chewing up the OEM cheese screws.
