$130..... its from a kwaka 250 ($560 new)...... & sounds heaps better on the SV than it does on the 250's :lol:

Got the back brakes sorted as the exhaust now hangs where the Brake reservoir used to be, just waiting on rearset parts to complete the RHS.

Is that a standard rear spring / shock assembly Rob? Looks like pre-load is set to max......I'm told the SV650 shock/spring is a good upgrade on GPZ500's :D

ZX10R shock from Russ, the SV shock is useless, to get proper sag that's where
It sits, it was set by S&W at the track & is close but not at the limit.

Thanks Rob - very interesting :D :D the SV shock is almost a direct replacement for the 500 one which is even worse than the SV shock. Seeing the ZX10's one there has the brain ticking ;) ;)

Just gotta have room for the resorvoir at the top, as far as length goes & spring weight the SV is on par with the ZX10 ........330mm, 430lb/in approx.
