Would you go for a Powerbronze or a Pyramid cowl for a 2000 curvy?

As Rigor once wisely said to me:

Go for the manufacturers own, or you'll only end up with one that doesnt fit perfectly, or that is not a perfect colour match.

I think he is right. :)

heya. i have got a pyramid one on my 2001 curvey. The colour is actually spot on which i was supprised about. The fit could be better but isnt bad. If you can get hold of the oem one i would go for that.

I dunno, the Pyramid ones I've seen for other bikes have been pretty good in both fit and colour match

Would be good to find an OEM one.. but they're a bit hard to come by. M&P have got coded Pyramid units for ?114 or Powerbronze in 'carbon effect' for ?60.

Try your local Suzuki dealer, they should be able to order you one in.

I had the pyramid one & the fit wasn't fantastic I had to stuff a sock in the part that fitted under the hoop at the back to stop it rattling. I looked good & the colour match was 100%

i have the pyramid. mine fits really well - no rattling.
colour match is perfect.

glad i didnt have to buy it myself though (it was on the bike when i bought it)
115 quid is just ridiculous

In the 9 years I have been fiddling with SV's I would say the one to go for is the Suzuki one, unfortunately they are in very low supply (Suzuki have sold out of one colour).

My second choice would be Pyramid, the fit is a bit hit or miss with the first ones they made, but now you should pick up a good fitting and well colour matched one.

Avoid the Power bronze ones, they truly are crap when compared to the opposition's!
