(I think I spend more time in the Zook forum asking SV650 than I did in the KTM, Triumph, and now Ducati combined. And I don't even /own/ a Zook)

Here's the gist; the girl has a great SV650, set up as a nice trackday bike. We want to modify if enough that it can do distance, but not compromise TOO much of the trackday joy.

One of the things that's been done to it is a front end swap, or partial front end swap with a GSXR of some description. As part of this, the bars have been replaced with what I believe are LSL bars of some description, but I don't have any markings to help be figure that out.

The set up is a bit forward and down for her, and it's making her back unhappy with any sort of extended ride. Bar risers, of some description, appear to be the solution here and a relatively economical one at that (and easily reversible for track days).

I spent a while trying to find a picture of the stock SV650 bars so I can attempt to tell where we currently are. I know a few folks on here have SVs; I'm hoping someone can shoot me a picture of the handlebars/triple clamp and I can try and figure out where we are currently and where we can get to easily. (Easily. Hah. Here's hoping the brake and clutch lines have enough slack, etc.)

Also -- anyone have any barback recommendations?

Don't know if you're looking for the S or N model, but here's an S:

And here are two shots of the homemade bar risers that the PO made:

Thanks. I should have stated 'N' -- I appreciate the photos, though!
