Oh cans will be getting replaced with black Beowulf cans when my bank balance recovers. My cars A/C just packed in today as well, so might have to wait till Chrimbo. Until then, stock will have to do!

Thanks all!

Heated grips?

What is it about heated grips lol? I cant see a single negative to them...

yorkie_chris

Lol.

They are Ok, shame you can't replace just the grip part and keep elements. 50,000 mile down line and mine are about worn through.

I had heated grips on my first SV (curvy)... I put them on one day, the next I wrote the bike off. My fault I know but I just can't put them on again. Massive shame though. That bike was a good looking beast... it even came with an ohlins rear shock with a stand alone adjustment thing, nice alarm system and a kick ass sound track... Bad times!

Anyone interested in buying? A career change may force a sale in the coming months...

Those spacers look thicker than the 5 mm required for the SV's 310 mm discs. Do you have 320 discs on ?

How much shorter are the K4 / K5 forks than stock ? Is radiator clearance ok ? Have you declared the forks to the insurer and did they wang up the premium. I'm struggling to find an insurer that will let me do the fork mod without paying literally hundreds more. One wouldn't even accept my road legal, 'E' merked cans on my recent ring around.

I am with bikesure and never had a problem with 650. Declare them as "uprated suspension and brakes".

They were 10mm initially and when the photos were taken. They've since been shortened to suit.

The forks are a fair but shorter than stock, and they sit lower in the yolks, but there are no clearance issues whatsoever. They're declared on my insurance. Just phoned them up and explained they were a stock model from another Suzuki bike. It's listed on the Policy as "uprated suspension", but the price wasn't much difference at all.
