That's good enough for me

Congratulations to you and your better half

Chris.

Wonder whatever happened to ant. Never did see the finished product. Anyone know him? I did meet him whdn I lived in Sussex. Is a nice lad.

Perhaps he decked it.

No not yet! Just been busy with other stuff.... Baby, house, business's yada yada.

This is what it looks like now, still a work in progress:

That looks bloody good mate. Well done. Glad you're still around

Good to hear from you Ant
Your bike is looking good

Chris.

Cheers guys! I'm quite happy with it but there's still work to do!

Looks great Ant, what rad did you use and was it an easy fit?

Hello Duffy, it's an sv650 rad and it's a tight fit. Need to figure out a way to adjust the steering lock stops still as the forks jjjuuuussstt touch the rad. The key was using two small fans from a cbr125 rather than a single larger one. I also fitted a larger oil cooler which compensates for the lower water volume. I rode it on the hottest day of the year last year through Brighton at very low speed for quite a while and it coped with it very well. Also still need to sort out the brackets they were only suppose to be tempory....

Thanks for the info may see if the SV rad will fit with the blade front end on mine, but will be tighter than a standard storm front end as blade forks are larger diameter. .

You’ve done a neat job on yours with lots of nice touches. Well done
