Sorry to rain on your parade dude, but, you got a K3 on an '04 plate... nice though

How can you tell the difference????

[Cymraeg_Atodeg]

1) Copper only came on K3's
2) His fuel tank says "Suzuki" and not just an "S"
3) The straight lower arms of the rear sub-frame

mines a k3 and has the S ;)

[Chandler93]

Yeah, I know it's a K3, but if you haven't noticed, 3 is next to 4 on the keyboard and it was an easy typo =']
The bike was registered in January hence the '04 plate rather than '03

[SIII]

Respect due on ident!

Has anybody got or seen a white L0 with lowers and a seat cowl?? ANy pictures??

Could look very nice!

[christopher]

No seat cowl on it by default, but the Canadian SV650 comes fully faired in white (or black)...

all K3s had the word "suzuki", regardless of whether it was naked or faired. The S symbol was introduced for K4.

All back together after the front end change and ready to be riden in anger

How much the new front end cost you?

[DavieSV]

How much the new front end cost you?

£250 for forks, bottom yolk & calipers
£50 for disks & bolts
£89 for carbon mudguard
£20 for clipons
£25 for master cylinder and lever
£12 for grips

These prices are all approximate, I have been buying parts for well over a year.

So I would say about above 500 pounds, but I'm not finished yet...
Respring/revalve for forks and shock
I have yet to sell my old forks, but as it stands at the moment with no settings tweeked with, my old forks and brakes were better with race tech emulators, 0.90 springs, 20wt oil and sintered pads, but not as smooth.

Let the tweeking begin:D
