I like the colour :) can't understand how you've done a few 10k trips without any protection in the form of a Fenda Extenda :p looks very nice and in good nick.

They're in Brisbane...lots of sun :p

Where abouts you from in Brisbane? I am wanting to move out there sometime in my life. Been once for only 6 weeks and it was amazing :p

Belly pan and removing the pillion pegs will finish it nicely :thumbsup:

Black fork lowers(as above), black rearsets and a black can :)

Doesn't get much better than that!

My bike is getting ready to move into the house in the next few weeks, just as soon as my wife's SV gets back from being repaired.
Once it's inside I have a few things I want to do to it and putting a belly pan on it is on the list.

Before any of our long trips my wife and I get a major service done on the bikes and then another service after around half way.
In 2007 we were stuck in Alice Springs for a week waiting for a new chain and sprocket to be fitted, so chain maintenance is super important now.

I do have some SV-650 stickers on it now that I had made up.
I'll post a pic of them later on.

That looks awesome. How much did it cost to respray?

Personally id prefer it with a black screen though.

The respray was just over three thousand AU
Its a prismatic paint job which has a green or gold flec depending on the angle you look at it.

Getting the room set up last night - seem to be missing something though

I like that green. 10k km on the bikes...Crikey! Those tyres must take a battering then...
