After many hours and tubes of elbow grease, I have refurbished my exhaust.

I recently acquired an M4 header from a friend, but the exit was the wrong angle for my scorpion muffler, so I decided to polish my factory header to match the finish of the scorpion muffler. How did I do?

K6 gsxr 600 or K6 sv650s for daily riding?

Hey guys looking to upgrade to a middle weight 600 after about 2 years of nearly daily riding a ninja 400. I’m torn between the super characteristic and fun L twin on the sv and honestly it think with some lower fairings looks a bit better than the gsxr, big fan of dual headlights. But an inline 4 just can’t be beat, I’ve ridden a gsxr 600 before really enjoyed it but still unsure. I do a lot of highway riding here in Florida and would still like to daily this bike but I don’t think I worry too much about ergonomics I have clip ons on my ninja so I’m quite to used the sport bike positioning by now. Also I plan on doing all of the maintenance and mods myself if that makes any difference. What do you guys think fun thumper L twin or fully adjustable more sport dedicated gsxr 6?

Looking at a used 06 SV650S on marketplace. How does it look / sound?

About 68K Kilometers on the dash.

Besides the tires and maybe the stator/battery voltage level, anything that I should be keeping an eye out for when taking a look at the machine?

Seller Description:


Oil changed every 5k/6m or earlier for fall/spring. Chain lubed regularly.

Pros:
- Upgraded suspension (RaceTech gold valve cartridge emulators, RaceTech springs 0.95kg/mm, bushings and seals), will include 04/05 zx10r rear shock plus a rear stand for asking price
- Galfer steel braided brake lines (front)
- LED headlights
- Smoked windscreen
- Frame sliders, throttle lock, RAM mount, other small things
Will provide original parts (windscreen, springs, etc)
- 2023: Valve clearance check and new chain (PO)
- 2024: Coolant, spark plugs, steering head bearings (OEM)
- 2025: Brake pads (EBC HH sintered front, EBC FA organic rear) and clutch cable (MotionPro)
- Fresh oil/filter change a few weeks ago

Needs:
- Front tire (rear as well, potentially)
- Seat cover/reupholstered if you want (not for safety)
- Scuffs on rear fairing from universal luggage but I have OEMs and can install for asking price (again, not for safety)
