I like Pyramids myself... Very well made, good quality fibreglass work and well finished, and the brackets are easy to fit too, no mucking about.

Came with the bike, but the usual suspects- most dealers can get Pyramids stuff in my experience, or ebay, or straight from the company. I should say, they're not cheap- £120 for the colourmatch. But their colourmatching's usually decent from what I've seen, I do think you get what you pay for. £80 for "BFP" which is going to be either unfinished or a plain black, it doesn't actually say :rolleyes:

Naked Racing Project had a good one too, but their website doesn't seem to have the shop stuff any more.

We have a Roca bellypan on our curvy. It's the best looking and fitting one, in our opinion, but they aren't cheap. We were lucky and got ours off e bay.:D

The quality's ace on those... I don't like them quite how they are but I nearly bought a damaged one to use as a base for a DIY one, if you lose the lights and flow the pan around the engine better it'd be perfect imo. As much as I like the Pyramids one, it's big.

Sorry, should have mentioned, we have the one without the lights...............not keen on those tbh.

We had a powerbronze one before the Roca, and it was bl**dy hideous! Huge, bulbous and really badly fitting.

Ah. Yeah, Powerbronze are **** :) And I see there's a company on Ebay now making lower quality Powerbronze knockoffs :smt042

Didn't know they do the Roca without the lights... It's the bulges for the lights that put me off it, but then again, they're very in keeping with the SV shape so that's just a personal thing I think.

That's not a bad bellypan.................if it sells cheaply enough. Nice colour, too:puker:

I can't believe nobody mentioned Skidmarx (http://www.skidmarx.co.uk/prices_belly_pans.htm)
TSM had one on his SV and it looked good.

I also have a Skidmarx pan on my bike, it's well built and fits pretty well.

I had to do a bit of cutting out to make it fit after I put the micron system, but all's well. Here's a decent (ish) couple of pictures of it fitted to my bike if you want a butchers:

www.freestreetdesign.com (http://www.freestreetdesign.com)

that's where mine came from, very much a Marmite thing I think. Check out their site, you'lll find it easily enough, the pic on the top left (grass in background) is actually mine from a few years ago (pre Ohlins and kitty litter rash). Looks great but is fibreglass so now no paint left underneath as it's behind the front wheel. Also need to make your own front mounting, but otherwise v good and not cheap!

I like that... Not really my thing but it's a bit different. Certainly suits the bike's lines and style better than most.

I got a Roca one for my yellow one, when its reborn...its gorgeous, pricey but perfect fit and colour matched, had i wanted to, could have had lights fitted in it for that full on chav look, but i didn't!!

That one's not quite standard, I had to chop it up a lot because of the weird WRP exhaust system, but it's still the same shape as it was.

If you're talking about the freestreetdesign one:
The curvy one looks good, if a little oversized, but someone went a bit mental with the pointy one!

Nice legs! Yeah, I like that too, it reminds me of the NRP one but seems much more compact.
