Default Re: How many SV1000'ers on here

sweet!

i now have a couple of questons for you all.

1. crash bungs, whats the correct position for them? (i currently bash my knee sliders on them, could also be due to rear sets.)


2. when fitting new cans do you have to cut the pipes? (just come to fit the standard ones in preparation for MOT tomorrow to find they dont fit.)

cheers

I'm sometimes to be seen on a black SV1000K3.

not sure to be honest. cant see any obvious weld marks. if it was done it was done very professionaly... (2nd hand bike...) either that or its a full system.... the reason being it has all the toys. powercommander, ktech suspension, the full monty. further investigation needed i think!

Are they the ones which mount to the cylinder head mounting bolts? If so then you've got them mounted to the wrong head.
