Mmm new forks!

Just been out for my first ride with the new forks - what a transformation :) No more trying to polish the headlights on the tarmac every time I brush the brake lever, no need to use 100% rear brake at town speeds, no bangs or kerthunks over speedhumps, just solid predictable deceleration :) I'll have heaps more confidence now that I could pull an emergency stop if I needed to. Best thing I've done to the SV so far by a long way.

And my lid looks like the scene of a bugtastrophe :D

Re: Mmm new forks!

Hi Dave,
Is that just with new springs and the emulators? Or have you gone for gsxr conversion?

Cheers Gaz

Re: Mmm new forks!

They're standard SV forks with the internals - came off the minitwin that Robc has been breaking (forks work was done by Yorkie Chris as I understand it - if so, thanks YC! from what I can tell with my limited experience, they're a top job :) )
