Me too :(

Enjoy Anthony, they are great fun and your off road experience will help you on the track. Have fun!

It's definitely sped up. The group he is in... is a novice maybe intermediate group. You can tell by the lines of everyone. If I sped up my onboard footage like that... I'd only be a second off the superbike lap record 😆

The bike was just a simple SV650. It had no fairing. I made the rear subframe and it had a race seat off a Honda fireblade.

@@lawmand from the shadow it also looks like you’re using clip on bars?

@@ryanm.191 It used the OEM SV650 bars. Some SV had regular bars some like clipons. The bike had a simple numberboard over the forks where the front light was. I made it from a road bike. I'll try and find a picture and post a link up.

Ryan you see a short still of the bike just after the intro....

@@lawmand oh yeah I see it, looks pretty cool. Im wanting to get myself an sv650 soon and I also love cafe racers, have a cafe racer styled 125 at the moment

I think they were both Bridgestone S20 road tyres at that time from memory Aaden.

@@lawmand do you recall the size ? Just curious. I've been looking at track riders and getting the different people who run the 120/60 or the 70. Thx

@@aadenbeauchamp4302 they would have been standard 70s. I built the bike to minitwin spec. Minitwin series is a "budget" racing series run by thundersport in the UK. To keep a level playing field mods are restricted.

Go for it, you will not be disappointed, the SVF's are a little faster out of the box too.

I'm pretty sure it was stock, I remember that bike had chain conversion and slimmer sprockets than a road bike. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful, it was a few years ago. The best mod was swapping the cams and getting it correctly fuelled....ignore a lot of the jetting settings you see on forums, get a pro with a Dyno to do it if you ever go that route. That bike made 73 bhp.

I agree, the build was a few years ago and cafe style was very fashionable. I think now things may have been different with a restoration of the original.

Excellent news! Enjoy

Hi Niklas, I'm pretty sure I took it from it's normal position and it fitted in the new position, as simple as that!

Not as bad in real life, kind of overloaded the go pro

@@lawmand i thought it might just be camera sound,,,,, sounds hollow

Thank you Gus

That bike was a 2000 with the "curvy " frame, later models had a more angular frame. They are all about the same to be honest, so as a track bike any are ok.

Ákos Szemes zx6r rear shock, heavier front springs and oil, gold emulators. Injection cams, shorai battery next to front cylinder, home made alloy subframe, fireplace race seat, race rearsets. I think that's about it. Great bike.

lawmand brakes?

Ákos Szemes standard with good quality pads, think they were Bendix but other sintered types ok.

lawmand Thanks for the answer! ✌🏻

Ákos Szemes my pleasure

Mike todd hi. I measured them all up and bought them off a company called Stagonset iirc. Lots of companies sell single nuts and bolts to order. I think Stag onset have changed name or ceased trading. For standard 6mm 8mm and 10mm nuts bolts and washers it's cheaper to buy them from Toolstation buy the longer lengths and hacksaw them to length.

Andrew Boundy Thank you. Yes it was from a company called Vonsetti. I believe Down and Out Moto also do them these days.

Thank you Edwin

Hi Ken, thank you, sorry for the delay. I've sold my bike now, but 40mpg wouldn't be far off

Just bought myself this baby last week. So far so good. Is that 40mpg urban/city or combined? _lh3.googleusercontent.com/m0TZBJQOu1Wm9TjNHaOotmr93FPH1sEG9nUB36XmMzTJ-O3NNaTCwtvJiNCw8ElihSBp4yTYDw_

Combined, general running. Your link doesn't show Ken, I get a 404 error.

I'll try resend again mate. The brakes are very progressive, need all my fingers to do any real stopping. That's gonna take some getting used too. _lh3.googleusercontent.com/AppeFFw7B0tzEsBHp4xJYjoFSp96HBzYM0535_dVLa2QPnMpslOKaLhDWI0zViIJMO6Hg8wonA_

Brakes were not great, but I never tried different pads. Still not seeing the link, 404 error.

Steven S. If I had that much power I'd probably crash anyway!

Alex Clark probably a subliminal message in there somewhere Alex:)

You may be right if the previous owner swapped it or added it. I'm not up on these bikes, it was just a project at the time and I was happy with the result.

lawmand, Yes, it's a San Jose. I have one on my R100/7. The original is thin and just holds the mud guard.

Thanks Paul for your kind comments, yeah, I knew I would get him in the end!

I've bought a 1999 Curvy in great condition,16k miles as a 720 month Birthday present for myself :)

paul sheppard they are great little bikes and all you ever would need for the road, enjoy. There is a great forum on line too which has plenty of useful advice and a little useless advice too!

I'm already on the forum and contributing.I have run my own Motorcycle forums before and still have an old CX500 forum running :)

They are easy to work on. That one ran 73bhp after injection cam swap. stiffer front springs zx6r rear shock, rear sets, home made rear subframe and that was about it. I sold it and now have a CB500 for the track which I'm building at the moment, they are a bundle of fun. I run an aprilia shiver on the road.

Thank you Thunderbolito, I appreciate your comment

my pleasure, I've been wanting to do a project like that for a while, it looks very cool.

No problem, it's an old video. You will enjoy those, the whole region is excellent have fun!

Thank you Nick, appreciate it.

Sorry for the delay Richard, Yes, I believe they still do.

Thank you my friend, I now have a mighty CB500 weighing in at about 45 horsepower, amazing the fun you can have on the smaller sports bikes and no expectations!

Thank you Matthew

Hi Mike, no it wasn't stripped. I guess living behind that fairing kept it clean. I used a product called "rub and buff", it makes the engine look great. It's a metallic wax product, you need a tiny amount and it lasts well. Just rub it on and buff it! Fantastic stuff!

Thanks David I will give that a try :0)

Its Star Trekking by The Firm ruclips.net/video/FCARADb9asE/видео.html

The bike is far more able than me! Thanks for the kind comments Peter. I'm currently building a CB500 Pizza Delivery bike for the track, we will see how that goes

Thanks for the kind words. If you ever have any questions re your build just ask. Hope it all goes well for you and you get as much enjoyment out of it as Ive had out of mine.
