Ker-CHING!

TL cylinder offset is the other way around, whole engine is wider. There is a lot of frame modification needed, but it can, and has been done.

Ah yes, then you find the TL lump is longer, so the front wheel ends up making friends with the radiator.

Gr33k, the SV frame is way stiffer than some old GPZ1000 or something, and those dinosaurs had more grunt than a TL. You have been spoilt by modern frames :-P It will take it fine, dangerous dave reckoned to have a 110bhp SV800, and it didn't fall over or anything.

Id imagine fitting it in would require a fairly extensive modification. Id imagine doing that would perhaps make the frame a little weaker? But whatever. Might be interesting to find out. :)

So that exhaust done yet? Pictures mate, pictures!
Hey I wouldn't go the TL route, too much hassle and questionable handling.
The little SV engine can be bored out for more if you'd like and I'm guessing a cheaper route to fitting the TL lump. If you wanted a TL youshould have started off withone I say.

no i would have only done that if it was gonna be a reasonably viable option, sounds like alot more effort that its worth,

be patient zunkus, i only dropped it off friday afternoon, and they aren't open over the weekend, so work may have only started today, trust me as soon as its ready i'll be there, and you will be the first to see it within the hour of me getting it back
