Default SV project update.

Just a bit of an update on my SV 650 project bike.

It started life at the end of last year like this,

Boxes of bits


Frame, swingarm, exhaust, and wheels in shed


Engine in shed with box of bits.


Bike today...


Just a couple of bits to sort and she's ready for MOT
Need to fix headlights, (only working on full beam.) Fit front indicators and side panels and sort the clutch mechanism.

Only special tools required were those for the engine and swingarm installation, and a chain joiner.

You can take the clutch cover off on the side stand and not loose any oil.
