Default latest/final Evolution

Ok I ain't not Quiff W but bike had it's yearly wash and I decided to take some pics. Best of a bad bunch.

Normally has a big yellow top box attached to it. Word on the street is that Jonboy is cracking down on obscene photos so.....

Bike aint really pretty but it's mine. As well as being a work horse it's a test bed for my experiments : )

Quick Spec(Originally a K1 SVS)
*Being originally an 'S' pulled the end of the main loom into the frame. The 'S' subloom then had the head lights , speedo , and indicators wire lengthened. The part of the Subloom for both switch gears which would normally be on the right was then split so the connecting block for the left switch gear could be placed on the left side of frame/airbox and the right connecting block on the right. subloom could now be arranged around the front part of the airbox exiting( bit for head light etc) to the left of the tank bolt anfd hidden in the headlight bolw.

*GSXR K4 Forks
*Braking Discs with rear to go on when I can be arsed
*JHS Racing Stage two cams
*Renegade Can(Slightly shoter than normal)
*Skidmax Belly Pan
*Adjustable Bespoke Top Yoke
*Technoflex Shock(off the bike at moment to be shortened and redone again to my specs)
*SV1000 master cylinder. Tried a whole lot of master cylinders but the SV just inched it for the prefered feel . The GSXR1000K3 was not far off what I was looking for but that will be kept as a spare. Awesome braking setup.
*Robby rear sets(****e lever design by the way)
Bicycle speedo setup but should have clocks on at some point/Garmin Etrex
*SV1000 handlebars/risers but not for long
*Fabri(I think) smoked Fly screen
Two piece headlight brackets(need to be tidied up)
*120/70 tyre/forks set at 10mm lower than standard 'N' giving trail thoeritically a little bit under original spec.
*Bike/free Sag set at 30mm
*Rear sag set at 8mm
and last but not least the all important
*Big Yellow Top Box



Cheers
Ben
















Anyon fancy a go

Looking good, the front end is great, maybe get rid of the numberplate bracket and get a nice tidier version

Looking good. Like yer front disks.

Do you find that crap from the road accumulates in the back of your belly pan? I did a bit of sawing and filing to put a hole in the back to help it drain off.

I liked it with that half fairing... but it does mean I can do mine and look different.
