Just thought this would be a cool new topic. If there is already one in existence please let me know so I can delete this one, or a mod can do it. As for me I finished my under tail project and rode the crap out of it.
What did you do to your SV today? (mods, farkles, maintenance, etc)

Installed a nice used Yoshimura RS-3 slip-on to replace my shorty Scorpion that was too L-O-U-D!!,
From this (pic before I rivoted the end-caps on and put the clamp on) -

Took the first big steps to replacing the 636 front end with the GSX-R front end. I can't believe how easy this mod is.

The top triple clamp from Pit-Eck is stunning and well worth the very reasonable price. Yes it was perfectly straight too. Also the fork lock still works, granted, it locks the forks going stright, but you can still lock them - very important on a track bike?
And one last shot for my biggest sponsor/supporter

Now all thats left is to wait for the "straight" brake rotors to arrive. bleed out the brake lines, wash everything and put it back together for a big teaching event next weekend.

Ordered gauffer ss brake lines, front and rear. Both sets blue with gold tips. Also from ebay I ordered the non reflective pin striping for wheels in red. Cant wait till it all comes in. Next are powder coating the stock handlebars black, rear view mirrors, as well as exhaust. So tough to decide what exhaust I want though!

We'll just call it "Eddiemon." We should just merge all his posts into it. Though, it would be fun to have a thread specifically for his "Hi soandso. Ride safe!" posts.
Eddie, any time you want to respond to a thread, you'll just go back to your own thread and post it.

Why the hate, man? Eddie's a nice guy.
Anyway, I changed my oil and coolant yesterday.

You're a good sport, Eddie. :thumbsup:
Oh. I put the stock fender back on. Better for riding in the rain, and the saddlebags fit where they should now.
