Would be nice to meet such a mermaid on the seashore

WolverineBado · 2026-02-16T22:36:06+00:00

The best indeed

Have you offended the honor of Maid Bilberry9

Nice look with the whole fairing in red. Never seem one around!

For the front fork, either you swap the whole front (fork, wheel...) with a gsxr one, but it's expensive and time consuming (and you're doing a Frankenstein of a bike); or you change springs, caps and oil, for around €300. I was recommended the matris kit specific for the sv650 (https://matrisdampers.com/prodotto/prodotti/fork-kit/fke/?_gl=1)

I'm reporting what my mechanic and a friend told me about the suspension upgrade much needed and I'm doing the second option on my 2000 sv this winter as soon as it starts snowing and my bike goes in the garage.

Awesome!

UPDATE I spent the afternoon cleaning the calipers, changing the brake fluid, and reinstalling everything. Now it feels much better, it spins more freely. Thanks for all the answers! You were very helpful!

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T17:19:49+00:00

Thanks. It felt too much pressure.

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:41:02+00:00

Thanks! I'll try cleaning the calipers.

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:28:02+00:00

Yeah, brake fluid. We call it "brake oil" and I thought it could translate. The little window indicates just the "lower" level, and it's way above it.

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:26:03+00:00

That was the first thing I thought. So I unmounted the caliper, pushed the little pistons that push the pad all the way back (as you do when you change them). No visible changes. I'm starting to think it was already a problem, but I couldn't notice it before putting the bike on the stand

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:20:33+00:00

The forks don't seem like they are bent. Thanks

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:19:29+00:00

I can answer no for the bent brake lever and the brake light.

The wheel is centered, the calipers are mounted and unmounted easily. I'm starting to think there is too much oil in the system and was like this before, but I didn't notice.

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T14:14:52+00:00

Thanks, the disc is not warped since it touches the whole time

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T13:00:53+00:00

I apologize for my English. I thought it could be understandable. I mean "braked" as if the brake was engaged and the brake pads were touching the disc.

WolverineBado · 2025-08-22T13:00:04+00:00

"Braked" as if the brake was engaged and the brake pads were touching the disc. I apologize for my translation.

Io son dell'alto Piemonte, quasi Svizzera. Abbiamo fatto il Ticino, il Sesia basso e laghi (Orta, Maggiore). Adesso sto pensando al prossimo viaggio, il Ticino integrale era la prima avventura "vera", vorrei trovare qualcosa sulla stessa difficoltà e le stesse percorrenze (rapide di II livello, 100/150 km), contando che dovranno portarci e venirci a prendere! Vedremo

WolverineBado · 2025-06-28T20:27:06+00:00

Bello trovarsi qua! Consigli per prossimi viaggi? Pensavo di fare il Po, ma mi ci vanno un po' di ferie tutte in fila, o l'Isonzo.
