I just bolted my master cylinder to the brace.

Not a great photo, but you can just about see it.

So at last it is finished. It was a complete pain which hasn't been helped by the 'customer service'?? of the supplier.

Has taken 2 full days over a few weeks to complete but it is finished.
Looks okay, but not ideal. Throttle cables have been routed but are not idel as they are a bit too long. Could have lost 1" off the length with no adverse effects.

Brake hoses were far to long iin the upgrade kit, so have kept originals with no problems.

Not bad for under £1500. Apart form handlebars, ;lowering kit, I have changed the oil, spark plugs (for irridium). Air filter is new.Tyres good, chain is okay at the moment.

The front cylinder spark plug was very stiff to remove, and not much better to refit with new plug. Is this common, or should I be concerned?

This makes me far more glad that I did mine myself using a genuine Suzuki Naked SV top yoke from E-Bay, risers from E-Bay and then getting both my throttle and brake lines from local suppliers. The only part I could not do was machine down the top yoke and risers to fit together better, but a friend of mine did it for me to super high standard on his own machines.

You could have bought the Fj1200 bars i modified to fit my pointy, you can see the difference they make here, no need to modify any wiring or cables, you can just get away with all the standard stuff, i've taken them back off now as i wanted to force myself to just get used to the Sv's standard position clip-ons. Would sell for prob £45+postage.
