Default Fork spring replacement... Forgot to measure travel beforehand.

Hey all. I'm in the process of putting some new springs and fresh oil in my forks, and I've run into a problem: I'm not sure how long to cut the spacers.

I should have measured the fork travel and such before taking the front end all apart... I don't have a front bike stand, so my current setup is quite a pain to get the bike on and off of! I'm hoping someone here has a '01 SV650S, and knows what the max fork travel is. It'll be close enough to what mine would be that I can make it work for preload calculations...

Better yet... Anyone else on here happen to be about 15.2 stone sans clothing, have the .85 kg/mm Racetech springs in their forks, and know how long they cut their spacers? No?
