It's painfully loud. The installation kit comes with earplugs.

 

That's ridiculous! Gotta get one. ccasion14:

 

I wonder if most states have a Db limit on horns. If not I should look into getting a small compressor... and a horn from a freight train...

 

I just finished installing my HID headlights

!

 

looks good, had you considered a projector retrofit??

 

I'm in the middle of buying a 03 sv650 with 01 gsxr100 front end and ohlin rear shock, was previously written off and was supposed to have repair certs sorted today. Unfortunatly its now off to another workshop to get the front end swap certified so will be at least next week before I can get my hands on it.

 

No, cycle gear has the hid kits 50% off. So I jumped at the chance since I needed 2 kits. Did both headlights for around $100. I guess its a pretty good deal, it works on the high beams too. Nice and clear!

 

Installed great SVRacingParts swingarm sliders! easy install, great service, and great product! :thumbsup:



only prob is the only "color temp" they have is 6000... too blue for me... its painfully annoying at night when someone's blue HIDs are blinding me... i wouldn't wanna do that since i know how bad it is...

looks hella good on the bike though! :rock: when i find a 4300k kit, i'll consider it.

 

Mounted a new rear PP 2CT

 

Pad change and bleed

 

That time of the month?

 

turned my Leo Vince into a high mount, very happy with most of it, just need to clean up the hanger I made.

Also covered the gaping hole in the middle of my seat with duct tape.

 

Basket case

Nothing!

The new garage is a complete mess! I know my wife's bike is somewhere between that bunch of boxes and all that old furniture that we need to get rid off... and my bike barely fits in that tiny available space left... if only I didn't have this much work these days, I would clean everything up and give them (the bikes) a worthy, nice and cozy home.

END OF RANT.


Now, for your entertainment:

 

got my '03 motor in the mail...doing a cam swap, rotor/stator swap, tapping the PAIR system, throwing on my gen1 covers. Stuffing the motor this weekend. Oh and changed the gearing to 14/46 520 setup! So much lighter!

 

That's funny.

 

K&N high flow today. Love it.

 

just installed my new jet kit and the new K&N filter with my Delkevic exhaust...finally.... oh yeah and ordered a 03-04 zx636 rear shock for it

 

Finally got rid of the crappy Acerbis cyclops and went back to the SV's roots!

Went from this,

To this,

Also got a chain gaurd installed as well as a new Gauge. I'm in Love with the mini flyscreen and single round look. Next saturday I'm tearing down a 07 GSX-R 750 and taking the front to complete here face lift. :rock:

Then its off to paint (Ducati Pearl White) and she will be complete... Until I find something else to do to it haha.

 

Looks 100x better :rock:

 

new chain/sprockets and looked over my tires. was going to wait to order a new set, but they're getting to that point where it really needs to be done.

making the switch from dunlop q2's to pilot road 2's. ive been hearing excellent things about them and hopefully they'll last a bit longer than the 8K miles i get out of the dunlops usually.

 

Hey man. Where abouts are you in Jax? Maybe we can ride sometime, I'm near Fleming Island.

 

Last sunday, met up with another SV rider locally and flushed the rear brake hydro, installed front pads, installed rear pads, cleaned up the for seal leak, cleaned the air filter

 

I have been very busy with the SV this weekend. I put a new sprocket on the rear, got the cam swap done on the new motor, swapped over the rotor and stator. I put on my new black and red levers. Cleaned the carbs out and stuffing the motor right now. Should be fired up this afternoon!

 

What did I do on my SV today? Well, I bought it... Great bike. (Technically bought it yesterday and have been working on the niggles and naggles today.)

Trying to jack up my forum count to 25 to purchase a WTB 06 Front Fender (Red) right now. Mine's faded on the front.

 

nice looking bike welcome to the forum, nice to see another western PA svrider

 

added some svracing peg mounts today! thanks blair!

 

Cleaned up the garage!!! ;D

 

If I had the exact bike, it would match my wife's 250r in almost every way.

 

picked up my bike a few days ago and already put on a corbin seat and my belly pan on! Will eventually paint it blue

 

What kind of belly pan is that?

 

I tried to repair the damage to some wiring from using Scotch Locks. I need to get one of the conductors out of a plug, but can't get it to budge. (It's the tail light lead that goes to a 3 conductor plug.) I want to put some heat shrink tubing over the part of the wire that the Scotch Lock destroyed, but can't get the wire loose from the plug.

Any ideas on how to get the wire loose?

 

Rode it in the rain for "Ride to Work Day". I could have sworn there was going to be a picture contest, but can't find it.

 

Rode it to work for Ride to Work day, Im about to ride it home too.
