Front and rear brake calipers plus hoses and reservoir, in need of a clean and refurb (some seal kits also included). Will fit gen 1 sv650 plus some Bandit 600 models of similar vintage.

Not sure...

Re: Gen 1 naked - spares or repair

Sorry should have added - MoT just expired this week so would need a trailer, sure it would pass apart from emissions due to the unburnt fuel.

Gen 1 naked - spares or repair

Before I stick it on eBay for spares or repair, thought I'd ask if anyone here is interested in a 99 naked curvy in black.

Was running fine until about a month ago when I left it stood for a few...

Re: First gen front brake lines

Many thanks for the reply and the info. I was going to go down the braided lines route however turns out the existing lines are fine - was actually the fork leaking down the back onto the part of the...

First gen clocks - naked and curvy

Hi - I have a set of clocks on my 1999 naked curvy which I'm willing to let go for £50 plus postage to fund a basic GPS replacement. Reason they're so cheap is the rev counter doesn't work properly...

Re: 🔥 20% OFF from GRmoto Exhausts on Ebay

Finally got round to tackling this (sorry Rob!) - for the benefit of anyone thinking of attempting the same the stock exhaust came off OK with the angle grinder while on the bike but had to bend and...

Re: 🔥 20% OFF from GRmoto Exhausts on Ebay

Yep will certainly try - don't suppose anyone on here knows if a standard 125mm angle grinder disc is wide enough to go through a curvy exhaust while still on the bike? Placing it against the pipe it...

Had no idea there was a JDM 400 version - thought that was 4 cylinder bikes only. Very nice.

Re: 🔥 20% OFF from GRmoto Exhausts on Ebay

I bought one very similar to that (at full price!) for my 99 Sv650n but have yet to fit it.
GRMoto - presumably I need to cut the stock exhaust off 5cm behind the last weld as per normal practice?

Re: Back on an SV, been a while

Good stuff - I've just returned to a (currently SORNd) SV after a few years off, last bike was a Fazer 1000 with exactly twice the power of an SV but half the fun.

Re: Curvy/naked clock compatibility

Thanks so much for that link - that is exactly the problem I appear to have though the rev counter isn't working at all which may or may not be related.

I'll have a look at that and see how I...

Re: Curvy/naked clock compatibility

Many thanks for that - it sounds like more trouble than it's worth! The curvy was written off going into the side of a van (results in my avatar) so probably a high risk of a fault anyway.
