 Should still be some relevant stuff in that thread though, I would have thought the stuff about wheels and brakes would be the same.I found another thread that might be more useful. http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.ph...hlight=#640345

Kwak,
You'll need the complete frontend. The only thing you can use of the SV is basically your switch gears, clutch perch/lever and your master cylinder. The are a few threads with loads of information if you do a search . Are you looking for radial braked or the non-radial? Basically your choices are: GSXR750 K1-K3 (Non-radial) GSXR750 K4-K5(Radial) GSXR600 K4-K5(Radial) All above will bolt straight on. Choose the type of USD you want to go for and we'll let you know the bits that will fit from other bikes. Cheers Ben

I'd use something a bit more modern and better quality than gsxr 1100 stuff.The ones from the later 600/750 are so much better.That's why they cost more.I think you need the entire front end including yokes,but not sure about head bearings.

The curvy ones will require a new top yoke too, mods to the wheel etc etc.
