how? where from? and how much? Love it :)

how: it was done by the shop from new as it was the copper colour that no one seemed to like!

where: it was done by Dream Machine

how much: It was done from new as a promo so it was free, would expect it to set you back at least £500 though.

thanks for the comments!8)

Can I be the first to say I don't like it?

I dunno, Gixer colours look great on Gixers, but to me the SV bodywork suits a plain 'one colour all over' paintjob better.

I quite like it. I wouldn't say I love it, and not something I'd do to my bike, but it's good. Sure it would look a bit more "GSXR" with a seat cowel too.

I'm sure it isn't, you'd have put lowers on rather than the 'pan.
Only said that because you said it was GSXR coloured, and I immediately thought (when I looked at the pics) that the rear seat does it no favours in terms of complimenting the paint job, that's all.

Should get the wheels painted white, get a seat cowl and a tinted screen (wouldnt personally go Iridium mind) and then it would be spot on :D

Oddly, considering the shape of the bike, it reminds me more of a GSX-R colour GSX-1400 than a GSX-R.

out of interest, why didnt you buy it?

Just looking around. I found a mint 800 miler for a decent price so went for that instead. To be honest, GSXR paint jobs arn't really me either - although the finish was great.

16-01-08, 05:22 PM
ah cool.
well im glad you didnt buy it because then i might not have got it! I was looking for a black one but found this one and now would want to swap... not even for a yellow one!

My naked bike has 28,000 all weather miles on it and the downpipe is like new. It's made from stainless steel, it's not going to rot in a few months.

Here is Suzuki's own version of the scheme on an SV on the 1000SZ mentioned by spidey.

Yours is well nice. I think there is too much white at the back of mine. I thinking of ordering the OE seat cowl in SV1000S dark blue from 2006 and doing some work around that. Think it is very similar blue.
