As dkid said don't go as massive ammount. I dropped mine 10mm and found tankslappers a bit of a problem. But a steering damper cured the problem, but that another expensive item.

Ok cool, did the 10mm drop help your turn/lean in?

Massive change but I had jack up plates on the rear shock as well. Turns into corners very quickly but shook its head on the way out. Depends how hard you ride I suppose too. Best way is to try it and change the depth of fork drop to what suits you and your riding style.

Ok thanks mate, good that everyone is singing from the same hymn book on this one! See your from cullybackey, You for the northwest?

Most likely but not on the SV for its still being built as a streetfighter

Haha nice one!
