Now that the winter is over.....hopefully !!!
I have wheeled my bike out from under its winter cover, taxed it, and i'm ready to go.
See what you think, I have made a few alterations over the winter.

Thanks for looking :D

First time i`ve seen a K5 naked in black - looks very nice.

I`m not sure about the headlight on the naked - looks chunky

That looks quite good actually, very very clean and the black naked does look excellent.

Always nice to get the Bike out from hibernation.

I took the cover off mine last week but it has been raining every day and I am unable to get out on a good run with the exception of last Sunday where I took it out and ended up getting soaked on my return.

I too have a Naked and its good to see what its would look like with a seat cowl fitted.
I am still in 2 minds whether to get one or not.

No mate - i`ve got the K5 Svs ( in black too ) and the headlights are ok (but not great). Thinking about upgrading them soon.

But that naked looks v v good - never used to like nakeds, but they grow on you
