No idea. The MA rulebook says you can use parts from "any other homologated motorcycle." Is that what you are referring to? No idea what GSXRs are homologated. Right now the plan is to either buy an ebay motor and put my heads on it, or swap cylinders and pistons as described before. Hate to tear apart that nice new +2mm motor but I don't want to travel all that way just to get DQ'd, either.
The sb motor being fresh is even more reason not to mess with it. News flash: used sv motors are cheap. If you never intend to use the built one I think you'd still be better off selling it and building up a used stocker
again. I haven’t clicked on this thread because I didn’t think a thread about building an SV would provide entertainment value. I was wrong.
Gino, calipers must bolt on to stock location so no adapters allowed for the gsxr calipers. JE makes a 12:1 and a 13:1 fsr piston. With the dual plug heads and apex fuel, I suggest the 12:1... We popped one this weekend and I suspect detonation with the higher compression
I already ordered a set of stock calipers. I'm looking into the pistons and tuning options. Thanks Mike.....Great Job this weekend!
The handy thing about SVs is that they’re so slow you really don’t need good brakes. Stainless lines, a good master cylinder and good pads really do make the brakes perfectly okay.
I bought a Zoran built 1st gen SV and I got the wider rear rim (for 180 tires). I have no use for it, and would love to trade it for the original size rim. PM me if you want to figure out a trade. I'm located in Las Vegas, and will be at most TrackXperience events, and will be at the next CVMA round.
If that is gsxr wheel and he does not take it I will trade you stock one for it. I will be in Vegas in 2 weeks.
Looks like I need to be schooled on SV stuff also. Sorry to get everyone's hopes up. I am still interested in trading this for the narrower SV wheel.
No worries mate. I have a couple of those wheels as well sitting gathering dust. Before the GSXR conversion Zoran developed, they were de rigeuer for running larger tires. I might have an extra stock wheel that I can get Zoran to transport for you.
