2002 sv650s handlebar conversion
 
Hi everyone I'm thinking about doing the handlebar conversion I've seen the kit from topyokes website but wondering about the throttle cable and clutch cable plus all the other little bits can anyone recommend what cables to use also a rerouting guide thanks.:D

if you cut some length off the renthals you can use naked cables. you have to remember that the Mk1 (curvy) has choke cables as well.

other cable options are available from the likes of Venhill.

maybe selling your sport and buying a naked might be a better idea. top yoke conversions can get expensive.

Hi all so done conversion now just need longer brake lines can I get away with naked lines would that be just 2 lines one longer than the other or does it go into a master brake cylinder thingie (below the bottom triple clamp) or do I just get some hel ones made to length (what size would this be ) thanks all have a great weekend

Hope it went well. Probs too late to reply, now?
The options were 1) standard cables from calipers to splitter, one longer cable to the lever, possibly off a naked but a single custom line is cheaper than two? or 2) two custom lines from calipers to lever, steal the double banjo bolt off the splitter. This is a 'race' setup. twice the price but new braided lines all the way.
Mine was a cow to bleed... consider taking the lever off to get the air bubbles into the piston etc.
Watch the routes, and tension esp on the throttle return, to get the throttle snapping back properly for the MOT and your sanity.
