Default Best Modification per £

Now I have decided to keep the bike for a couple of years. I am going to start modifing it and I was wondering what the best mods are per £ any ideas. So far i have done K&N airfilter, fender eliminator, 46T rear sprocket and soon a GSXR rear shock.

pm chewy - hes got a website on cheap mods.

personally- i recon the most effective mod you can do (apart from an end can - to stop that embarrising sewing machine noise ), is in the head

thats right - rider training. make yourself faster (and safer) rather than the bike first.

aah, in that case. you might want to consider the gas approach, i saw a NO2 kit for 650 quid. that will make you go fast without spending too much money (in the short term of course )

and im sure you will be the envy of the site

Warren... Why are you suggesting things to mod on an sv when you don't even have one

Would have to go for front forks as most cost effective for difference, exhaust and airkit for grin factor and tail tidy for cosmetics
