I would seriously like to do some crazy project like turbo an SV650 or put my FZR1000 motor in my Seca II. That would be fun.

.....I would, but I don't really have any good ideas for mods. Maybe a Power Commander, but they are kind of expensive! :confused:

Well, I know I am going to try and put the long swingarm on mine and finish putting the rest of the carbon fiber on it. Other than that we will have to wait and see what else gets done.

I'll probably "mod" my coolant,brake fluid,clean and "mod" my chain free play,and call it good!

Note: my oil and filter was just recently "modded"!

Powder coating my frame, swingarm, subframe, subcage, triples, cage, round bar, and swapping my motor. I am going to try and do some race bodywork this season also. I'll post some pics in a few weeks.

Actually I did install the factory titanium muffler off an 08 750 in favor of the giant sv stocker a couple of months back.

Thanks for the help JOSbunchanumbers! It looks factory!

You can kinda see it in this pic.
