As the title states, set up for a 15 / 16 stone rider £250+p&p

Some very light scuffs and a small part of the red spring plastic has 'chipped' about 15mm long by 5mm wide.

Can e mail more pics if required

Come off my curvy track bike

Hello, I'm new to all this biking business. What benefits does this set up give and is it easily adjustable? I'm about 13 stone at the moment. Also, does it raise/lower the back end at all? I'm looking to raise mine a tad without going down the dog bone route.

Interested in this also. What sort of "fitting" (cutting) is required to fit it?

650 : I havent got the adjustable spanner with it, but these can be bought for peanuts, demon tweeks, evil bay etc. The spring can then be un-wound so its softer, its then got an adjuster for rebound and I believe the bottom adjuster is a bump adjuster. Yes it is height adjustable. It will improve your ride no end from the stock piece of tat that suzuki deem fit to ship the sv out with!!

bert682 : all you would need to do is remove the plastic upright that comes off the swing arm to allow room for the piggy back resevoir

Sorry for being daft but do you mean the tiny rear mudguard mounted in the centre?
