RGV 250 Rebuild part 4. - SV650.org

05-06-11, 07:12 PM

Been back into the garage for a bit more today:

The first job was £100 worth of silicone water hoses and £25 worth of new stainless fittings.

Now for some more bike porn. My new special made Pace radiator. 32mm thick and improved flow over standard. All £500 worth!

Lastly changed the gearbox oil for some Putoline RS75 race stuff. The old oil looked like it was a 100 years old. Also new coolant into the radiator!

I have spent the last 2.5 years collecting all the bits to do it.

In terms of a list I am not sure. Probably easier to say, I have replaced EVERYTHING lol.

Some totally unnecessary steering bling added today.

Very nice Dan. And I note some wee teasers of bodywork colours too.

Oh yes, will be going on later this week hopefully. It has been in my loft for 2 years so I hope it is all ok!
