My "new" SVN

Why not just swop the engines from the S to the N? Then keep the other engine as an unopened spare?
If you've got a heated place to work for the winter looks like a great project. Hope to see pics of the finished bike.

What's dyna-jet stage 2?

I'm thinking about getting some more juice for my pointy, and I've ordered a full Yoshi TRS S/S system and a K&N filter. What more would you recommend for me? (Sorry for stealing your thread here, if you bother answering, you might do it with a PM).

Thanks!

A dyno-jet stage 2 is some stuff for the carbs to let it run better. Don't ask me what it is, I didn't install it. But I am sure there are people around here who can tell you what it is...

I think you have stage 1, 2, 4 and 7, but I'm not sure about that. The higher, the more power.

But on a pointy, you will not need that as you know

Installing an system and K&N will give you some horses more, but don't expect a lot! You will need to remap though... (pointy-people will help you out with gaining more power out of your machine! I am an curvy-specialist )

Will look great though, going for a cafe racer sort of thing with the clipons?

Don't know why it doesnt say the rpm's. Maybee because the speed is also shown and it can't do it both?

Cafe racer it will be

I am looking for a nice bellypan, but can't find one I realy like, or it is too expencive for what it is.

Because the S had 74000 km's on it and the N 'only' 23000.

I'd still run the older engine until it pops

Then I would 'only' have 78 bhp.
But you've got a point!

Here she is:









- "new" Akra can (normaly for a R6 but this one also fits an SV)
- ZX6RR shock
- home-made rear fender eliminator
- tail-raisers


Me like

nice bikes.....


BTW that akra will fit any bike with a 52mm inlet.....

She's finished! Just a few details I have to work on.

















Shall I name her SV650CR (Café Racer)?

I like the clip ons on the naked. Something I have planned myself. But you have also pointed out to me that Gixxer forks on a naked don't look good. Just my opinion of course so take no notice. But I don't think it looks right.

Glad to see you saw the light and went from curvy faired to curvy naked. And even better than that, went from hideous yellow to sublime black.

Swap you

It are not gixxer forks but R1's.

Yes, black is muchos betteros, but the beautiful yellow wasn't that horrible me thinks.
