I am thinking about running a 1000cc twin...

Matt - Congrats on #8 and #9  Way to freaking go!!!   ;D  Which # are you gonna run / will they let you run?

re: weighting the front end: Can't you use lead bricks on the top of the triple clamp?   :o

Not disputing that at all!  I will dispute whether or not it is reliable with minimal care and feeding like a stocker is.  btw, fwiw, I am talking about my preference.  The stock SV can be a blast for a lot of people, just not me...

As far as reliability/finicky behavior goes, you don't HAVE to build the SV to 100+ HP.  You can back off on the level of mod a little to build in a little reliability factor, eth?

 Do I need more ride height or some 22's.  Anyone out there put 22's on a 998 yet?  Or maybe a 22 on the back with a 19 up front!

I think that the Yamaha R6R that is rumored to come out will have 22's, front and rear.  All of the tire manufacturing technology will go that route.  I would bet that putting the 22 on your "R" will dramatically change its handling for the better....

See you on the corner....Homie!
