You could also try Brake fluid O rings. I put them in my KR and they work great. Cost me under $5 compared to $118 for Kawasaki seals.

... (d) non of the above.
After putting the race wheel in (same problem), bleeding brakes again . I noticed something...
On the SV, the axel screws into one fork leg and there is a sleeve through the other. That sleeve is supposed to move, but it got stuck about 1-2mm out from 'fully in' position. This must have been enough to throw the calipers off and cause the brakes to stick.
More cleaning and grease and everything is fine now. Who'd have thought it.
Good you found it. First thing I thought was dodgy aftermarket brake lever holding the master cylinder piston slightly on & not uncovering the return port as mentioned.
Last thing it might have been is to clean out the vent in the master cylinder cap & check the rubber isnt ripped & over filled. The vents can block with white deposits.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
