That is an impressive level of attention to detail. Top work.

Nice work. Very very clean.

I'd be interested to hear how you get on with the pod filters. You had to re-jet I take it?

Cheers,
I put in 152.5 Main jets (a guestimate) and 3 turns on the a/f mix, I have run the crank case breathers off to the side of the bike.

Looking good, but how did you get away with stripping the bike in the lounge, SWMBO would go nuts if I tried that

Wow, that's really impressive work! As SH said, amazing attention to detail - Did you do the welding job on the swingarm yourself?

A hundred million points to you (and I love the silver SV too )

I rented a garage for the strip-down, Built it in my lounge( hence that's why I'm single)

A friend did the welding for me. He's welds alloy for a living. So was in safe hands.
