I would be interested to come. i have only recently got back on the zed scene with a kaput Na swb but in the process of the TT conversion, and my clio 182 cup isnt really worth putting on the RR. Either way if my zed is ready or not, i can be there :)

Wide Arch conversion
that looks nice, id pay attention to the inside of the arches and see how they have been cut and shut. you don't want the inside of your rear quarters to be exposed to the elements.

My first 'bike
Hey daffy nice bike, i have had my license for 2 years now and have not long owned my SV650 and its bags of fun and sounds the part too! its no 900/1000 of course but for now it 'would' be good fun if this weather would go somewhere else! The new license system is very, thorough now which i think is mainly aimed to deter young riders as there is an obscene amount of tests to take, Anyway good luck and have fun! Hollings.

new member from the hull area
Welcome to the forum mate but first things first....pics!!! There ain't many targa topped zed a that don't leak but can be remedied by giving the seals a warm bath, bathing them in peteoleum jelly helped mine or replacing them, but they are not cheap! Wide arch kits are a pretty penny to fit. They require arch cutting and welding, and A lot of prep, not forgetting the respray at the end ofcourse but they can be found as a lot on z centres website and I'm sure you can get some others from the USA. But anyway, welcome. Hollings

Wide Arch conversion
its expensive. ive seen kits as low as £600, but then there is a arch fab work to be carried out, and then fitment and lots of filling of the kit, and then ofcourse respray. Wouldnt be able to give you a figure as it depends where you go and how good their work is, but id say this job would be good for only a reputable bodyshop, and would be £3500+ inc parts....but that is a rough figure. (and probably a low one)

Hey I sold my lwb tt last year for a Clio sport 182 cup and a Suzuki SV 650, but it really....wasnt a zed so I got a new one! It isn't running at the moment it's a silver swb manual n/a which I hope to convert to tt cause the current engine is knackered! Also make it all Shiney and blemish free! Here comes take 2!

Standard wheels?
They will have a big Arrow on the tyre for correct rotation though, unless the tyres have been put on the wrong way :(

Good TT Engine article
Nice find dave, had a read of that and found it quite interesting. Thanks, Hollings.

Boost Gauge Location?
Depending on what gauge it is and what features it has would govern where id put it. A normal gauge as baz said in line of side or close too would be ideal, but with most now you can set higher limits giving a warning tone when reached. with those i would move them to a more 'head down' location. My favorite position has always been mantav8's center vent builds!

Surprising new car
ahh she got the 1.8 20v turbo? a friend of mine had one of them and had a remap, and it was quick! he got rid for a s4 v8 but he missed the TT just because of the fun factor.
