Sv650 Banzai

Discussion in 'Builds & Projects' started by El Vikingo Tropical, Dec 30, 2017.

  1. This horrible bike was purchased for 700€ with the idea of giving a gift to my wife, as it’s a good girl bike and fun at mountain roads.

    I drove it home and it worked okay!
    It was pulled it down in parts for some fun!

  2. The worst part on this bike is the front fork and brakes therefore I used a some units that you Italian lovers knows!
    As it’s for have fun I swapped the sprocket for one with two more dents,
    Radial brake pump to help the Brembo calipers

  4. One thing I doesn’t like is the sound of the bike!
    I don’t know why but it doesn’t sound like a nice twin!
    But as the moment I live it like a finessed bike!

  11. The front fork and brakes is from my Cagiva Raptor 1000 (same as Ducati SS 750).
