Details

The Suzuki SV650 makes an excellent track bike. They are inexpensive, parts are easy to come by, and they're a lot of fun to ride.

Converting my 2008 K8 SV650S to a pure track bike was a fun project, and while it's not cosmetically perfect (I painted the fairings myself with a rattle can), mechanically it is in excellent shape.
