Like, wake the neighbors loud" Hmmmm ! That`s a shame . It sure looks nice ! I wonder if a person could fab up a pre muffler ? Doug P.S. If it is not appropriate to ask and respond like this , let me know . Thanks “That said - it is LOUD. Like, wake the neighbors loud”

It was tough for me to find it - I had to go through an insider at Tucker Rocky. The Yosh website didn't have it listed, but TR had a part number for it. That said - it is LOUD.

Good luck with the swap! DougZ - Thanks for letting people know about the spacer machining. Cool SV products on your site as well! Dave - Sorry, I am not sure if the rotor will work.

So, if any of your friends do the same or similar swaps, fell free to contact me for spacers. Thanks, DougZ I found this blog from a link someone had posted on SV rider.com

I have a 07 sv650s. I picked up a pair of 2k7 gsxr forks with calipers, and read the post about the sv650's havin a 290mm roto. So my question is will gsxr 750 rotors fit on the sv 650 rim?? Any info will help thanxx! Dave D Nice post, been a huge help! I have a 07 sv650s. I picked up a pair of 2k7 gsxr forks with calipers, and read the post about the sv650’s havin a 290mm roto.

A skyhook would have been nice, but I used a standard set of front and rear stands to lift the bike. I put 2x4s on the ground under the wheels of the stands (on each side of the front and rear tires), so that when I "jacked" the bike up on the stands, the stands woudl be on the 2x4s, and thus be 1.5 inches higher up thwn if I used just the stands on the ground. Those LSL bars will be super cool! Good luck with your project and feel free to post a link to some completed pics in a comment here when you are done - I'd love to see the bars. Lew -

Skyhook?? or did the usual front fork stand lift the bike high enough to put the stands under the frame sliders? PS I am going with the LSL standard bar conversion for the '06 GSXR 600 upper triple...way pricy! How did you get the bike up on the jack stands/cinder blocks?
