GSXR Rear Wheel Conversion Kit? - SV650.org

Howdy,

I have bought a GSXR 1000 rear wheel and plan to fit it on my SV, only I have been doing some research and found I need to machine the sprocket carrier and the rear caliber holder, well, I don't want to do this, because what if I come to sell it or one day just happen to have the other wheel on and I can't because of this, just wondering if you can buy pre-machined ones already?

Talk to TWFracing, see if you can get one from seppo eBay and get it sent there for machining, that's what I'd do.

Hmm, we'll if had a look there and you have to send it your own, I'd rather keep my set, you think it's wise to buy a new set and get them machined?

It makes no difference whether it's your own or someone elses, just that they don't supply one and it will be cheaper than sending it over the atlantic twice.

Seems like a good idea actually, nice one

Apparently this twf guy doesn't deal with 1000 wheels, ill just wait until the wheel arrives and mod it myself

i'm maybe barking up the wrong tree but i think you'll need an offset front sprocket.

Hmm, yeah just reading on it now, is this easy done? A lot of people have gone for the 750 rear wheel

Why did you buy the thou wheel before reading into this lol.

A 190 tyre is complete overkill you're better off with the 600/750 5.5" wheel.
