Default Re: SV special build - S-pokey-V.

Not massive mounts of progress to report due to being waaaaay too busy at work and having 2 wisdom teeth extracted....

Swingarm is finished - bead blasted and then scotchbrited and now ready for setting up the rear linkage for designing, machining and welding into the frame...





Bought a set of GBmoto rear sets - very nice an excellent value for money but unfortunately they don't kick the pegs out far enough to give the clearance needed around the swingarm for the exhaust routing. So I'm popping over to see Ivan & Jamie Porter (of supermono racing fame) to have them machine me up a set of offset matrix plates for the rearsets.

I've been attacking the petrol tank - cutting out the original filler cap recess in preparation for plating it over to mount a Monza stylecap and also cutting out the back ready to weld in the fuel cell that is going under the seat and replacing the rear sub frame...
