GSXR Rear wheel on an SV?
Can this actually be done? without any major work? Just wondered if i would get anything from having a wider rear tyre?

Slower turn in and I think it would foul on the swingarm, you'd have to move the disk and sprockets as well I'd think, sounds like a PITA.

Looks like someones already done it here http://forum.svrider.com/showthread....ght=gsxr+wheel , i heard it just offers more range of tyres because of it being a common size

Re: GSXR Rear wheel on an SV?
This is my set up with a 190/50ZR17... I do prefer the 180/55R17 on my race tires...
When you buy the GSXR Kit, all the work you need to do, is remove your stock SV650 rear wheel and install any 06-09 GSXR 600 or GSXR750 rear wheel on... You do NOT need to machine the wheel, you do NOT need bearings... You use your SV650 axle, chain adjusters, same rear brake...   Some say slower turn in... But, have they used a 180/55R17? Or is it all just theory? There is a reason why all 600cc to 848cc super sports have a 180 on the rear... Believe me, it is not for slower turn in... Before you do wheel upgrades make sure you work on your suspension first... Luis PS: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=143904 Last edited by SVXR650; 20-12-09 at 08:04 AM. |

Re: GSXR Rear wheel on an SV?
It's pretty easy to do. A few measurements and a couple parts made/modded and put it back together.

Re: GSXR Rear wheel on an SV?
Cool. We offered my GSXR600K6 rear wheel upto Steve's Thunderbike SV and it looked like it needed the sprocket carrier face narrowing as the carrier stood out of alignment to the chain run. We did only do it quickly though and then plumped for a CBR600 98 rear wheel prior to his sponsor buying him some carbon dymags.
The 180 on the rear works very very well too. |

Re: GSXR Rear wheel on an SV?
What tyre do you recommend on a CBR600 rear wheel in an SV650 track bike. I assume that the 5" rim gives a pointy profile and I want a bit of stability down the straights
