New fork for the SV

Considering that I am fundamentally a mechanical engineer first and a controls/software/electrical it was probably inevitable that it wouldn't be too long before I would feel the need to modify my moto.

I don't think that I HAD to or NEEDED to change the bike, I WANTED to. So there! to all you folks that will say "Gee, Odie! If it ain't broke, why are you fixing it?"

What I am doing is a very common upgrade on this moto: retrofitting a front fork off of a Suzuki GSXR 600/750. The advantages are mainly the better shocks and the bigger brakes. In my opinion, bigger brakes are always a good thing.

So I got on eBay and started gathering parts and here is the result:

I have everything I need. The wheel is on it's way and once it's shows up, the forks will be complete.

I just need a place to do this. I hate not having a garage.
