SV650S bars for SV650 bars?

[MikeC]

I've heard the 'S' model has quite low bars and was wondering, if I were to find this to be the case, if I could fit the higher bars from the naked model? It will be on a K3 or onwards bike, if that helps...

i was worried about this, but found it was ok :wink:
you can get raisers though

Agree, thought might be a problem, but enjoyed the test ride so much thought...ah s*d it anyway.

Now don't notice it at all, very comfy to ride.

And there are plenty of bar risers if you want them.

Out of interest.... has anyone fitted clip ons to a naked?

Not without a shed load of work. S has clip-ons whereas the naked is indeed bars. But like hovi5 said you can get raiser clip-ons that raise the height by just over an inch.

About £200 and you get braided brake lines in the kit :D

Where's that from Zopilote? Looks good!

I bought mine from Lois in Germany, www.louis.de. It was quite easy to fit, most of the time was spent rerouting wires and cables under the airbox and bleeding the d*mn brakes. ("One down, one across" - setup) I think it took me about three hours totally. Personally it think the bike got much more comfortable, even if the wind is a little more disturbing at higher speeds. Recommended! :)

I did a similar thing from streetfighterstore, but I notice you have different mirrors now. Can you actually see behind you with those 'cos i can't with mine at the moment, just my elbows! If you can, where are thay from? How long are the arms?

Actually, i have no idea... :roll: It is winter here in Sweden and my bike is resting in its warm garage until april. The mirrors are from Louis too, "FAR" with built in indicators. I think they are about 10 mm wider than original, so i guess the view is similar to (as bad as) original mirrors
