Well I have always been a Buell fan and I am actually picking up my first Buell Fri. but I have been lucky enough to have a few great friends that are Buell fanatics/racers that never shunned me for riding that "other" bike, the SV650. My 650 has been through a few iterations so I thought I would show some of you my progress. As you should all know the SV does not have a great suspension on it from the factory. Many swap out the GSXR forks onto the SV but I wanted a challenge and I love the Buell so here is what i ended up with. Here she is the day I bought her 08/08 With a full body and new paint 05/09 "Final" form. I was happy with it. 07/09 After a young woman decided that I wasnt worth stopping for. 09/09 Christmas project 12/09 And in its current form. This was taken south of Daytona 03/10 Here is my list. 2004 SV650 Lower Triple forks and wheel off 2004 Firebolt Billet top Triple ZTL2 Brake system Sharkskinz Body Honda F3 rear wheel 2008 GSXR1000 rear shock |

Thanks, sometimes deciding what not to change is harder than deciding what to change. |

VERY nice Suzuki. I liked 03/09 best, but I am very jealous of your ZTL2 caliper from 03/10. |
