Sure you are going to have a lot of fun on that.

The front don't half look funny with one disc though.

Is there any chance you can lose that 1st pic. It's blurry and doesn't do your bike any justice at all IMO.

It looks very shiney until you look at it now. I accidently melted my dads cover so the down pipes got melted cover on it :S When i first saw a the 400 version with only one disc I thought Nah don't like that, iv got used to it now. Going taking it to be restricted on Saturday but won't get it back for a week

First pics gone. Cheers,

Rob

Thought you meant engine size then lol!
I doubt they would have manufacturer different sized frames and parts but ya never know.

Apparently the 400 started off being 2035mm overall length in 1998 and then it gained 5mm in 2000 and then gain a further 30mm in 2003. Not sure how true this is but it sounds a bit odd to me. Found it out on this website http://www.suzukicycles.org/SV-serie...0-SV400S.shtml

We have alsorts of cleaning stuff in the shed but I just stick with the bucket and sponge! Its a fairy...the person who owned it before me was a 60 something year old woman. I keep meaning to take them off but I've not got round to it yet.
