After being almost the only stock SV at the ARTNW I decided that I wanted to change the bike or make some improvements.

Found a supplier of new CBR 600RRs for £6995, but the insurance was stupid and I didn't fancy going for a 600F for £50 more so it looks like its the mods.

New can arrived this morning, shopping around for some tyres (probably Avon Storm 2's from what i've been reading). Tyres aren't really a mod, just that mine are dead.

Also looking to upgrade fork springs - currently between Maxtons and Hagons although not sure it's worth the expense of the full Maxton cartridges.

I know there are plenty of threads about what to do, but if anyone wants to give me their 2p about what to do it would be appreciated.
