Bought a K5 sv650s yesterday! 4,500 miles, Red... picking it up next week as its getting a service and extra mot an tax :D so gotta wait a week to finally own it....and i aint the most patient person....

Anyway, if anyones got any parts or advice for her as she's completely standard i'm looking for;

Double bubble tinted screen, as i'm rather tall and want more wind protection...
tail tidy...whats the best to go for? hamicad/evotech?
Aftermarket exhaust, thinking about Fuel as i like the small family business vibe and ethos...although blueflame and scorpion are in my mind also. I like slightly higher level cans...
and a seat cowl, Red....

Will hopefully be out on some border patrol meets this summer, and anything thats closer to birmingham really...:p

Well it's a shame about the colour but otherwise, nice one!

Don't forget the Stuff Wanted and For Sale sections :smt023

You're not too far from us then, if you're Birmingham. We tend to be out and about a fair bit, and there is an EAR rideout on April 13th you may be interested in.
