View Full Version : Converting SV100S into a Nekkid?
How cheap can it be done?
What things would i need? I want the higher bars, so would need a nekkid top yoke and bars but what else?
:smt040
EDIT: That'll be a SV1000S

Not certain the naked top yoke will fit the faired bike, Saeed has a nakedised SV1000S, perhaps you could ask him what was done yoke wise with his bike. Other than that you'll need longer hoses and possibly wiring for the switches will need replacing/extending.
And a bin bag for the smashed fairing parts.
Hmmmmm not quite a 10min job then. :(

Do they not do a kit from an aftermarket supplier that you can fit ?

it really is a bigger job than it looks, i read a report on this before and ur prob better off selling the s and buying the n model if u want nekkid.

You've not scuffed that paint job have you?
Or do you just fancy getting nekkid!
F'nerk!

Its very tiny slightly scuffed from me ice dancing.
But i've got it in pieces at the mo and wouldn't mind going nekkid, oh errr!
I think it would look good if i could do it right, but if its a lot of ****-ing around then feck it!

tis a loverly bike dude :)
Maybe you could just remove the fairing if it's damaged and keep the low bars ala cafe racer? Looks ace that way.
Nah lower fairing is ok,
I want higher bars so might do the conversion like yours pete in the summer
Love the look of your bike how it is, surely getting the scuff repaired would work out cheaper than nakedifying your bike, all the parts ect. Bar convertors, cables, brake-lines and so on.. Mr Sheene wouldn't look so good naked!!

Nooo, the scuff aint the problem! Its a tiny little thing that i never noticed,
I had the bike stripped down today and thought it would look good nekkid :smt040
Just going to put it all back together.

Yeh i thought the same when i stripped mine down, they do look good naked but i do like my fairings. I just think it would be a shame to naked such a nice bike as it does look the DB's as it is!!!

+1 Riding position is cracking fun too. Give it a try whilst the plastics are off anyway, you might find you really like it.
