I spent $750 for an Elka rear shock.....
because it was VERY tall and hiked the rear-end up so much, I spent another $200 to have the internals lowered so that I might reach the ground. But that wasn't low enough, so he put some longer links on it....
- BUT -
it felt too soft at the rear and I found my zip tie on the raised front tubes to have been pushed all the way to the triple tree.

Soooo..... I returned the OEM link in place, lowered the tubes back to the top of the tree. I can't reach the ground any better than I can on my Bandit, but the SV handles & rides MUCH better!

Got the replacement for my stolen SV last night. Today I installed a Gorilla 8017 alarm, put an alarm on the door where the bike is garaged, installed an Evotech fender eliminator, T-Rex swingarm sliders and no-cut Motosliders.

4.5 hours of work...I took a break and now I'm heading out to put the tech spec snakeskins on and peel off the warning stickers. Hopefully I won't be too **** tired to ride it lol.

got a new windshield kinda

 

[NineseveN]

Took all of the stickers and resulting glue residue off of the bike (tank, chain guard, fairing and frame - all except the one that has the VIN on it and the Suzuki stickers).

I pulled the front end apart again in preparation for clip on conversion of my N

 

[Rrrrick]

Replaced brake fluid front and rear. Next is the coolant, and getting my new front tyre mounted and balanced, and a clear windshield so I can see things when I tuck behind it.

Broke out the toothbrush & kerosene and gave the chain a much needed scrub down. Lubed it and then went for a ride. Came back an hour later, just before the skies opened!

 

[jackonfire]

I finished putting on my clubman bars which included a new clutch cable. Didn't get around to changing my plugs though. There's always next weekend.

Rode the pi$$ out of it! 200 miles in the letter road blessed hinterlands of Southwest Wisconsin :rock:

 

[Terc]

Good to hear it Darren!

I walked out and looked at mine for a couple minutes. Contemplated getting on it. But just then I started feeling dizzy again, and got my sick and tired self back inside.

I was really hoping to get this challenge today: http://forum.svrider.com/showpost.php?p=2092130&postcount=1944 - here's hoping for Tuesday instead

Darn that sexy new rubber!

 

[LobsterMagnet]

Put on CRG shorty levers and installed Trailtech Vapor unit. Broke the pinch bolt for the clutch controls, but at least there's a cool looking black shorty lever on it now.

Installed a custom muffler. lol

 

[sdobbs20]

got my rear seat cowl in the mail, so i pulled the grab bar off and fitted the filler inserts and the new cowl. looks good. the cowl itself is in a little rough shape but i can live with it for now and send it over to my painter in the winter.

Well, yesterday I dropped it off at the shop to get some fork seals replaced.
