SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

My vote would be to match the angle of the zorst to the rear bodywork, pretty much as per your experiment pic.

could be wrong but those swingarm/axle adjuster/marker plates look like mine. if they are thick SS then they are so they are handed R/L. also mean that its an ex members bike.

I will have a look when I'm in the shed tonight. I have a feeling that they are fairly bent up, so are standard, but |I'll get my magnet out to see if they're stainless
