If I wanted to do a forks swap...
 
If I wanted to stick a new set of forks on my SV (pref GSXR 1000's :!:) Which forks do I need to be looking for :?: Should these include the brake components too (if I get the chance,) or will the SV's calipers fit on the Gixxer forks :?: :?

Any help given, greatly appreciated :D

I think Gixxer forks are covered

Have you thought about a spring/oil swap?

Big improvement for little cost, and can be done easily in a few hours :thumbsup:

Hiya Cloggsy

For the money you've spent blinging you primer SV, you could have had an SP2. I was just about to say that at this time of year, the only thing it's missing is a fairy on top, but having seen the size of your 'Chicken Stripes'!!!!!!!!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

As per
 
Cloggsy Got BT14,s about a 1000 miles ago I,m not saying they aren,t reasonable but I will not be having another set Have a good look at all the different tyre reports,not just this site,and think wisely before panting with your " ard ernd Yorkshire brass"
Sorry should read "parting" or maybe not :lol:

P.S. I,m going for the cheaper option oil/springs [Skinflint] because the bike will look standard when resale comes along
