Default Re: Anyone ever gone back to an sv?

Ah see, would be a pointy. I want a white one with white lowers cos they don't make them. So fuelling becomes an issue once you start tweaking them a lot, wish JHS still had their sv pages working but they've been down for ages now so I cant price goodies anymore.

You can throw as much fuel as you want in, but if you want power they need air.

SO you effectively just drill whopper holes in the throttle bodies and it lets more air in, ah see.

Sounds so simple Chris. I think a plan is beginning to form here though, I need a garage!

personally I would not do that, he had other guy do all the hard work for him with measuring and machining.

I would pick some GSXR ones, they are black and sexy and some models come with FB rated springs. And it is all ready to bolt in.

+1

the sv steam has a spacer welded to it and then that pressed in to the rsv yoke, lot of ball ache

crank will need doing i should think for 90bhp ££££, busa pistons are a tiny bit bigger maybe .5 of a cc lol but they weigh 17 (or 19) grams less than stock

So if you bolt in some FB spec GSXR forks I take it you just throw the wheel, brakes and everything else in too. Then use the speedo off a mountain bike.
