The guy isn`t an endless money pit , if your feeling that flush then buy him a set and donate them to him then Runako

Re: My little SV based project
 

I think for the process of design the stock suzuki items are spot on.

Todge did you consider the underseat as a design?
Not criticizing as the GSXR1000 Style end can looks the part

Re: My little SV based project
 

Well he's not just looking for scrap parts is he? A great deal of the bike is custom. Its had a front end swap which is an improvement. If the aim was to get the best out of the SV then, with the front end change, you can go the full hog with the susp. & that would cost a bit. GSXR wheels of eBay are not magnesium, lightweight or new for that matter. If this an example, i don't see that as an exorbitant expense. Anyway its up to the man himself ultimately. Isn't is great to have an opinion?

Re: My little SV based project
 

xXBADGERXx, didn't you just suggest a Yamaha SDR 200 swingarm swap? What, those are free these days? Look, i just made a suggestion. Does anyone know how much Todge has to spend? I don't. Of course there are priorities but a better set of wheels is achievable - whether GSXR or Marvic :)

Re: My little SV based project
 

No , I said have a LOOK at one , his original design featured a trellised swingarm , and I said "Imagine having a beefier version of that one the bike" .

Re: My little SV based project
 

Runako are you suggesting a 180 rear wheel conversion?
Do you know how much work is involved with that?

Badger suggested basing a swingarm on the SDR200 design

Re: My little SV based project
 

Which would mean what, making one right? For the record, i agree. Lets see what Todge thinks.

And no Andrew, just better wheels than stock.

Re: My little SV based project
 

I would not want marvics or whatever on a road bike.

Re: My little SV based project
 

So your talking race wheels which would be scrap after 500 miles and 1 pothole. If were talking changes from stock, you talking thing like ER6 and Kawa hoops which would require alot of measurement and fabrication to get right.

Re: My little SV based project
 

Just use 06> GSXR wheels, simple bit of machining and new spacers and it is done. Zoran sells kit. Very easy.
