New comfort bar conversion ordered
 
Just ordered a comfort kit for my sv, i orderded the whole kit, yoke, risers, bars, cables, brakelines etc.
£307 delivered.
Cannot stop pins and needles no matter what i try,
Had to do something otherwise i would have to change bike and there was a nice gsxf in the dealer tempting me.
Might need help off the forum when it arrives as not too sure about the cables and brakelines.
It seems to be a problem for a lot of us so will let everybody know the results.

What did you order? I'm thinking of ordering either the Gilles variobars with risers or to get a LSL conversion kit...

I was considering tracking the items separately but the biggest unknown for me was the cables and brakelines, do you just buy the ones off a bandit or similar?
As im a novice working on bikes (know a bit about cars ) i couldnt be bothered to risk fuuking it up.

buy the brake hoses direct from hel £50.....throttle cables can be reused if rerouted correctly...so alll u need then is top yoke or bolt some risers on, renthals /bar ends voila8)

Finally, my handlebar conversion kit has arrived(4 weeks), looks good, cant wait to try it out.
One thing that does seem to be missing, the intructions.
I know someone has done a step by step on the forum somewhere but i was wondering if anyone had any they could email me.
A lot of the stuff seems pretty straight forward but there is apparently instructions for the re-routing of cable etc which would be handy.
XxBadgerxX offered his help so i may PM him.
