Default another build thread (long term)

ok so this is like my 3th build thread (equates to how manny times iv crashed )

but this time i havn't crashed ..... no this time its all planned (sort of)

this is going to be a long running thread as what im planning to do will be over the next year or so.

so the plans are as followed

get new rear tail unit and spray tank,tail,under tray,seat cow (unless i go single seat unit) and belly pan (when i get one)

will be then stripping the bike down to parts and having the frame and subframe powdercoated (and laquerd so gloss black)

will be making some adjustments to light brackets, and redoing the vapor wiring as the fuel light still dons't work and the other lights are dull

will also hopefully be getting a leo full system at some point (must be high level) and get the bike mapped

or instead of the above build my self an ohlins shock ttx


so those are the plans

most know what my bike looks like but considering this is the photo section i will post the pic up

I will be watching this young man...

** EDIT **

As in that's me telling you "I will be watching this", not me saying "I will be watching this young man", like I will be watching you through yer windows and stuff coz that'd be strange


I'm going to stop talking now

id love to do something mad like nos but i dont thing the crank could take it, would be fun though possibly catch some SS600s out

ohh also want to lighten the fly wheel and uprate the clutch as i can make it slip at the moment (not adjustment)

and change the swing arm

god the list gets bigger and bigger

haha big turbo small engine dont think that would work to well lol the cr*p thing about the sv is theres not much space to put stuff

i doubt if iv got enough money after all that (body work is priority) but bigger throttle bodies would be cool lol

ps the sv is long term and i will get a bigger bike at some point
