SOLD
I'm so depressed, but it went to a good home. If anyone is looking for SV stuff though:

I'll be putting up more stuff as well.
So the desire to build a new house and the fact that I am not actively racing or running track days right now has caused me to consider getting rid of the race bike. Figured I would check for some indications of interest here first before putting it out to the general public.
1999 Suzuki SV 650 Race Bike

Suspension and geometry always handled by GMD, this includes sweet numbers. In reality, the first time I brought the bike to PK I just about spent more on the suspenion than I did on the bike. Frame was straight, but had to tweak the forks. Emulators were added, correct fork springs (155lb rider), cut spacers and preload adjusters. Rear shock was rebuilt, sprung and valved. Remote compression was added.
Bike has been to GMD for suspension service every season I have owned it except 08 as it has not moved. Steering head bearings done last year. Sweet numbers done again to run Pirellis.
Regarding the wiring harness, it has been cut down to only the bare necessities. I have a copy of the wiring diagram you can use should you run into any problems. The fan has been removed, no I have not had any overheating issues. I have opted for a smaller battery (sorry the nomeclature is escaping me) to drop a decent amount of weight. The battery has relativley no problems starting the bike with the exception of cold mornings, first/last of the season. Of course it is easy enough to jump if need be or you can go back to a stock battery. The keyed ignition has been removed and replaced with a toggle switch.
Crankcase breathers have been vented to a catch can rather than the airbox.
There is a minor issue with the rear brake. One of the previous owners cut the supply line and plugged it. I've always maintained fluid in the line and the brake works if you need it, but if you are someone that uses the rear brake on a regular basis you will want to replace the supply line and add a resevoir.
Bike has been down 5 times since i've owned it, always brought back to PK to ensure it was straight.
The bike runs strong, podiumed as an amateur multiple times with it. To the best of my knowledge there has never been any motorwork done. I've run it for 3 seasons with no motor problems. Visually the bike may not be the most stunning but it is nothing a couple hours of elbow grease can't fix. Fully safety wired. If you are looking for a LW race bike, here it is. I can gather more pics if requested, you can also see pics here Rebellious Photos :: LRRS 10/06/2007 as well as by searching number 165 on owens site.
Would be looking to be at $3,000.
