Tell you what bring your bike down to me, we will strip front end, bolt your forks into some SRAD750 yokes I have here with a srad front wheel, discs etc. We'll see if it all lines up ... and then Nicky will decide "nah I can't be bothered, I'll just get some progressive springs instead"

... would be a good one if we could... mabee in the summer..

found something else out the other day... the front mudguard (modified by cutting the back part off and making new mounting holes) off the pointy SV fits the GSXR100 k1-2 forks..

well that is a lot of info and cant belive you stayed up till like half 1 chating about it mish lol

so i can use a SRAD wheel :P

i now know i cant use the sv speedo on the front but the SRAD wheel looks nearly the same as the sv one so could i use the SRAD speedo ???

The SV650 runs it speedo off of the front wheel and the SRAD wheel has no location for it and the SRAD spindle has no space and is to large a diameter to except the speedo unit. There are three option to take, one is to run with no speedo, another is to use a Hall Effect sensor (Northwind and Yorkie Chris are your experts here ), and the final option is to run the standard SV speedo off of the rear wheel.

YC DD says your the expert on the speedo bit :P want to explain a hall effect sensor

as far as i know the srad is same as K in that the speedo sensor is driven off the sprocket shaft...

easiest way to do it is magnets and hall effect sensor...

hopefully we can figure out that we can use an srad wheel.. just have to compair the outside bearing sizes...

umm if im using or we can use a SRAD wheel then i am using SRAD spindle as well so a SRAD speedo seems easyer but will it fit and wire into the sv ?

The SRAD doesn't have a speedo sensor like the SV does. The SRAD and most other gixers take their speedo signal from the front sprocket.

A hall effect sensor is basically a switch. When it passes through a changing magnetic field it flips from non-conducting to conducting. The SV speedo interprets this output as a speed based on the frequency of the pulses.


So, to make it work all you do is bolt 4 little magnets through the brake disc rivets, bolt a sensor onto the mudguard mounting tab and wire the sensor into the stock loom.

kk were can i get this senser/speedo from ?? also do we know if i can use the SRAD wheel also im going to need spaces ect as well seeing as i am using the SRAD wheel and spindle i take it i will need SRAD spaces

Spacers? SRAD only uses the spacer in the middle of the wheel, most I've seen on eBay or whatever include this.

The spindle design of SRAD> spacers is such that the spindle IS the spacer.
