Moved to i'm a raving bender, and my best mate is dave preston.

Re: why, simply why
 

that's one sweet looking ride.......

Re: why, simply why
 

Looks like he's done a cut and shut. Half SV, half bus.

Re: why, simply why
 

He has crashed it I suspect and got that front cheap, at least paint it the right colour.

Re: why, simply why
 

:smt044Looks like a boat - and those mirrors are used as paddles.:smt044

Re: why, simply why
 

Dont think so.... Motorway commuter + has all the original parts to put back to standard.

Re: why, simply why
 

Just cos he has the parts now, doesn't mean he had them when he crashed it (if he did).
He could've bought it damaged, he could be lying with the details, either way, it's a crime to do that.

Re: why, simply why
 

that is a crasher.

Re: why, simply why
 

YC might like that if it wasn't a pointy hybrid, might give him ideas about the XJ front end :smt040 :smt119

Re: why, simply why
 

Exactly. It's probably not a crash that inspired fitting the present fairing.

Pretty it ain't, but if you had lots of motorway miles to do, that fairing would a much better thing to sit behind than an standard SV fairing, and sitting behind it you wouldn't be able to see it.

Re: why, simply why
 

Any link between your location and that of the ebay seller?

Re: why, simply why
 

I believe the bike's a nekkid (check out top yoke/bars), and that fairing's just been added. If it was me, I'd put it back to standard to sell, but that might go for a good price...

Re: why, simply why
 

love it!!! gonna see if wanna do a straight swap for my thou'













NOT!!! :smt119:pukel: soz to the owner but that is really awful i'd rather ride a harley with tassles and spikey mirrors and a mohawk lid

Re: why, simply why
 

Has certainly had a bar conversion, but .... "can be retro fitted with original bikini fairing and headlight"

Re: why, simply why
 

Re: why, simply why
 

Which, if you had a lengthy motorway commute in all weathers would be a poor choice.

It isn't pretty, but if it works for the use to which it is put then there's nothing wrong with it.

For some people biking choices are made for reasons other than feeling the need to be riding the 'right' bike, and buying the 'right' accessories.

Re: why, simply why
 

Oi! I had that fairing on my old NTV (which probably explains a lot). The chap I sold it on to was going to put in on his ZZR1100...

Granted it doesn't exactly sit with the SV's lines, but it is a comfy fairing to be sat behind.

Re: why, simply why
 

Dave i don't know why your slagging it as its like something you would come up with and be proud as punch about it.

:notworthy:

Re: why, simply why
 

Wow. That is fugly. Really fugly. The f word, obviously, being "functional". As in, it's really fu(nctional but you wouldn't want to be seen in the same county, let alone riding the bike because it's so damn u)gly

Re: why, simply why
 

aaaaaaaaaaaaargh

Re: why, simply why
 

Considering what I ride, I'm not in any position to comment on the aesthetic qualities of the fairing in question. However... some of you should really take a look at your reflections before passing comment on what looks good or is pleasing to the eye. Also, someone has pointed out that the fairing is functional and does a good job of what it was designed for, another thing some of you need to look a little closer to home and assess.

Just saying :-)

Re: why, simply why
 

Lozzo, you're missing the point. For us aesthetically-challenged individuals, the last thing we want is to add to the problem by riding something that looks like somebody has punched it's face. Repeatedly.

Re: why, simply why
 

No, no and again no.

Us aesthetically challenged people should totally relate to this bike and thank the deity of our choice for one thing; when we stand next to a fugly bike WE are the ones who look good. Wtf do you think I bought a Versys?

Re: why, simply why
 

I stand corrected. Your Versys is worse!

Re: why, simply why
 

remember the 80-90's most bikes look like this but were all the rage.

Re: why, simply why
 

but would you ( if of course you were the skum of the earth) nick the damn thing

Re: why, simply why
 

No more than I would a Reliant Robin!

Re: why, simply why
 

but would you nick a Robin

Re: why, simply why
 

would she put out widepants

Re: why, simply why
 

depends if the misses is looking
