Pros: This kit has dual bearings for both levers. The CNC Machining of the Rearset gives a Sturdy feel and impressive looks. Great grip with DEEPLY Knurled fixed pegs. It's smoothed out my shifting. 99% of the Installation is Simple and quick. (And for Taller riders, If you switch the Left and Right side positioning brackets, you can lower the pegs to a more comfortable height.)
Cons: OEM Rear brakeline is pulled tight with minimal slack for swingarm flex, but still ridable. Instructions were very Minimal (1/2 Page for both sides) and failed to mention needing a couple bolts from OEM setup. Also, you need to buy a Banjo-Bolt Rear Brake Light Switch so the rear brake activates the brake light.
Overall, I think that if you're going to replace your rearsets on a 2006 Suzuki SV650(S), then the Vortex kit is a good decision. It shifts better, looks better, and feels much more securely mounted then Stock. I recommend this setup, but remember, you might as well replace the rear brake-line when adding on the Brake-Light Banjo Bolt.
