Just finished fitting my new bars

I normally work saturdays but i'm off this month for around 10 days so i've got a saturday off aswell as the Big ride saturday of course!

Should be ok though, i double check when i'm off tomorrow.

Cheers!

Infact how are you at electrics?

Got some clear tail lights and undertray on order aswell and will defo need another hand with fitting them!

Did the throttle cables come as part of your kit or did you get them elsewhere? I've just put some Renthal bars on a K5 and I definately need longer cables. The ones off the naked bike are only fractionally longer and have different throttle tube ends, I've got them but before I change the throttle tube I thought I'd see if there is an alternative.

yes the longer cables came as part of the kit, pain to fit though.

Thanks, next question - where did you get the kit, obvious move is for me to contact them and see if they will do me just the cables. Cheers, RH

I got the kit from THIS WEBSITE drop Matt an e-mail he was really helpful and has offered the ORG 10% discount SEE THIS

No probs mate, big thanks to you for helping me get mine started on Saturday too (you had to get that little dig in didn't you? ).

Just having problems fitting bars to my SV.

I bought Renthal Streetfighter bars because I'd read you didn't have to change any cables.. what lies! Ive also heard that renthal lows work, but there so similar to the streetfighters?!?

New throttle cables and front brake hose plus re-routing everything not through the forks (I don't think it'll pinch) is the only solution it seems.
http://www.speedycables.co.uk/ said they'd make a new set of throttle cables for me with an extra 2 inches for about £30 and I guess a new front hose is about £60

I have an SV650 N K6

I got new throttle cables with my kit and as an extra I bought a naked clutch cable as it is longed.

I can't edit my first post to fix the links to the pics so I have jsut put them here again for you.
