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)

Put on some Galfer SS front lines, EBC HH brake pads, and hacked up my R6 throttle tube. That goes on tomorrow.

Switched it back over to std shift from GP shift, installed new grips, new clutch lever and perch, bled the Brembo MC and SB Lines, and cleaned up a bunch of street take off parts to sell.

I replaced the Exhaust hanger/passenger foot peg with the SV Racing parts black annodized standard height hanger bracket. Looks great to me, and looks far less bulky. SV Racing Parts was great to work with and provided a quality product.

I've been neglecting mine... Not riding it much just now since I'm commuting on my mountain bike but I've got a weekend away coming up and it was overdue a service, so... New oil, filter, bled the brakes, general fettling and tidying up and greasing and tightening... Fixed the rear indicator, which had been intermittantly failing (bad solder joint, one of mine natcherly)...
Also, replaced the clutch. It didn't really need this but I got a cheap set of Hyperplates (lightweight alloy "steels") off ebay a while back, then got a set of friction plates and new springs cheap locally a while after, so thought I would treat it. I like to replace parts early as that gives me a stock of spares. I've not actually ridden it as yet but I'll post up about the plates once I have some miles on them. They're about 230 grams lighter than the old ones which isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things but it's weight in the right place, and a lot cheaper than a flywheel or generator lightening session. So we'll see how that goes. I basically don't like the idea of alloy plates but they have good word of mouth.
I meant to reinstall my HID kit and fix my heated grips, but I got bored of motorbikes and worked on the pushbikes for a while instead.

Went on my Sunday ride, stopped at the D-Store for free lunch and watched MotoGP. On my way home stopped at Cycle Parts West and got a flat repair kit for my bike.
