Just thought i'd add my photo to the forum as i'm now the very proud new owner of a blue SV650s - K6 http://upload4.postimage.org/1798827/PB220037.jpg (http://upload4.postimage.org/1798827/photo_hosting.html) :D

Looking good. :) Hamicad tail tidy and you're there!
Some might say you need a new can too but I prefer the stock one...

Cheers guys, thanks for the advice, where can i get the tailtidy, and if i was changing the can, what would you advice ( and how much would it cost ! )

[kwak zzr]

tail tidy from hamicad.co.uk and check out the exhaust section for opinions on cans, prices vary from £100 depending on what you choose? fuel cans get a good reports and are cheap.

Or tailtidy from EvoTech.... Meant to be very good.


Oh yes and another vote for a "Fuel" Can. See Exhaust section.

Cheers,

Garry :wink:

Apart from the colour (According to votes the red ones are clearely the best by a significant margin (sample, a large community of 879,765,341 red ants living under my patio)), is a darn fine bike :wink:

I'd go (went with) the Evotech tail tidy, its ally so won't rot and light too, get some spacer washers for the indicators though (halfrauds).

Zorst is a no brainer, CCC Oval from the Carbon Can Co eb@y shop, price is very good and after the baffle is given a helping hand they sound the best too IMHO anyway.

Those chicken strips are ooooge :shock: Roll on the better weather and all will be fine. As for tyres, I'd consider (went with) Avon Azaro AV45/46 as they work fantastic wet or dry as an alternative to the standard OEM dunlops, will turn in a tad faster though.... which is nice.

Nice one

:thumbsup:

Guys ( and gals ! ), thanks again for the advice. Picked the blue as i wanted the sports kit ( lower fairings and seat cowl ) and they weren't offering it in red ! Only blue or silver

Wasn't sure of the blue at first, but i think it looks a lot better in the daylight than it was in the showroom, seems like a different colour.

As a complete novice when it comes to changing anything on the bike, do most folk get a garage/dealer to change the end can or is it a fairly easy job to do yourself.

Space washers ? What are they and what do they do ?

Need to get used to riding in the wet 'cause waiting for a dry day in this part of Scotland is like waiting for my lottery numbers to come up !

[drumroll]

nice ride :thumbsup:

Re tailtidys - just fitted an evotech to my k6 - no problems but i recommend dowloading the instructions from the hamicad website - different tailtidy, but has pics so easier to follow than the evotechs intructions.

as plenty peeps have said, exhausts are up to your personal taste. i got myself a Fuel exhaust from ebay. good quality and sounds luvverly when the baffle falls out. i fitted it myself with limited mechanical knowledge - but you will have to CUT your OE can - sounds scary but once you deal with it it turns out good!
