CHEWYS RIDE UPDATE

Hey,

Like Cloggsy said, from one silver to another, I love it! Very nice mate. I've been to your site before, looking good.

Hey Chewy,

Is that a homemade gear indicator with the 5 blue LED's and one red LED, located just down to the left of the tachometer and speedometer?



It looks like you invented the idea. Do you have any instructions on how to do that? Looks easy but I am sure it wouldn't be too easy... Anything would be helpful. Thanks,

Mitch

seen better....



just kidding, that looks great, must have cost as much in mods as the original bike, i want one of those tel you your gear light thingies..

Yes thats right gear indicator that is connected to the GPS plug also it has a TRE fitted into the circuit. I posted a how to do in www.SV1000.zyns.com will see if i can find a link.

You will need to register to be able to see the pics

Small legal point (and one you should be able to rectify in a couple of minutes!), I'm not 100% sure, but I think the tax disc is meant to be on the left hand side. I know it's also meant to be up front, but it's generally accepted that on faired bikes that's not possible (so no one bothers with it on semi-nakeds either). Maybe put it on the left hand exhaust hanger, rather than the right hand one?

I can't remember the exact reason it's meant to be on the left, something to do with allowing pedestrians (police, traffic wardens) to see your tax disc without having to go into the road (to get to the other side).

You bike does look absolutely brilliant though, fair play mate.

Yes you are correct about the tax disc location. Arrr sod em I like it that side so most can see it when the bike is parked, I will be adding them to my web site soon £20 they are made from 3 pieces of mirror polished stainless steel and a perspex cover

That looks good!

I am soooo jealous of you guys and your nice shiney new bikes

I will get a new bike one day, oh yes. mwah ha ha ha

no offence ceri, but that'll be the least of chewy's problems if the feds want it put into road legal state.

i like the black wheels and subframe. as i like the look of the K5 frame, i was thinking about black wheels, frame and swingarm on my silver SK3. am not sure if that would be too much black on the silver, but having seen yours i am going to look into it in more detail.

great looking bike chewy
