My other project/other love. Picked it up from an insurance auction cheap and it runs like a champ. Not so pretty...for now

Pics when it was delivered:

From what I can tell, the previous owner had: Yoshimura Exhaust, HotBodies Undertail Fender Eliminator, SM2 Handlebars (they were bent), and a custom paint job. Oh! And a burn out problem! That rubber was so effing hard to scrape off the fenders!

I added/upgraded: Vortex Frame Sliders, Rizoma 11 Turn Signals, DMV Grips, Moto-Bike X Handlebar, GIXXR 4 Pot Piston Calipers, SS Brake Lines, and Upgraded Pads. I still have a lot of work left before I can get it inspected and on the road but I have time. :devil:

Nah J/K, Good luck on with it. My first bike was a EX500 that needed lots of work! Have fun!

So, I have pretty much finished the bike. No hot pics of me on it...yet. Have to find someone fast enough to keep up with me :)

Update on mine, it's officially a SV650R (GSXR front end)

I am also threw on the stock cowling/windscreen. Will get pictures later. Too busy enjoying the ride!

I'm waiting for some CF bits...

Here's a recent pic:

I also have stock front turn signals to put on. I might be the only person who buys a bike and purchases parts to put it back to a stock look...

So, my bike changed a lot of bit. I actually went with a custom upper triple that took care of most my mounting issues that you would run into with the GSXR front end swap. I also found an OEM windscreen/cowling -

Also made a bracket for my license plate. Didn't want to put holes in my fender eliminator and I kept getting in trouble for having my license plate mounted on my battery box behind the rear tire :p -

I got to ride it a few times this summer. It rained for a lot of the season, so a bit bummed about that.
