Help me mod the SV!

HokieDNA01 · 04-01-2010, 12:57 AM

I owned a severely undersprung bike (ninja 250) and a majorly over sprung bike (currently GSXr) and re-valving/rear shock made a HUGE difference on both. Bike just starts to feel like it isn't fighting you all the time. cornering is much more controlled. If you have the money I would set the suspension up. Best mods I have made (thanks Kerry)

I'm getting ready to have my suspension redone and looking into the fork rebuild because my SV feels like i'm running over railroad ties a lot when i'm cornering.

But I gotta take care of an oil leak from some jackass who didn't know how to change the oil. grrr shoulda just done it myself. And gotta replace break pads which will prolly happen the same time i start on the forks.

www.sonicsprings.com FTW. Rich is great. Instructions are a piece of cake. You will definitely notice a huge difference in the corners
