Curvy with GSXR front and rear conversions - SV650.org

2000 Curvy with lots of stuff.

This was mine, and then my dad’s, but he has decided to hang up the boots (he is about 76). Hasn’t really been used for the last couple of years, just sat in his garage having goodies added to it, and cleaned.

Main bits. 2007 GSXR 750 compete front end and rear wheel conversion.

Forks, discs, callipers, wheel, fender all from a new 2007 GSXR 750 (now still only have covered a couple of thousand miles).
GSXR rear wheel conversion, with 2008 GSXR rear wheel as new condition, and brand new Avon storm ultra 2 180 rear tyre.

In no practically order:
12 months MOT
R & G Tail tidy
Yamaha R6 quick throttle conversion
Double bubble dark screen
Seat cowl
Aluminium rear under tray
Rear hugger
New front and rear sprockets (front +1)
New heavy duty chain
Kawasaki ZX10 rear shock, (checked and tested by Maxtons)
New swing arm bearings
Iridium plugs
New plug leads and caps
Yoshimura exhaust
New throttle, clutch and choke cables
New oil and filter
Braided brake hoses
New raised dog bones (originals supplied if needed)
New shock link bearings
GSXR foot pegs
K & N air filter
Near new Avon ultra storm 2 front (couple of hundred miles, if that) and new 180 rear Avon ultra storm 2.
New GSXR rear wheel conversion including 2008 GSXR rear wheel, newly powder coated to match front.
Although I bought this years ago as a cat D, (faring damage only) it is a genuine clean un abused reliable honest bike.

This is a good intimidate bike before going the full GSXR route, lovely tractable SV engine with a well sorted chassis and most important, brakes.

£1500. Bike is in Farnbough, Cheshire.

If it doesn’t sell, I will convince him to break it, as the parts are worth more. Ist dibs will be on here, then the GIXER forums, then eBay.

So would I! Christ that's gorgeous, puts my curvy to shame. Hope you get a good sale.

I just bought a bike! Dam it. That is mint and will be purchased in no time. I'm jealous of whoever the new owner will be. How many miles on it and has the speedo fix been done for the GSXR conversion. I will annoy people I know and make them buy this.

I'm just curious to know how come you don't know your dad's real age ...

Thanks for the comments, mileage is 32,000 and it has the hall sensor and magnets for the speedo all made to look factory (the old boy is a retired engineer).
I have trouble remembering my own age, but doing the maths, he is 74.
