Something like that would be perfect.
They clearly state they're for the new 2016 model.
Some confusion....
In 2016 there were two models of SV on the UK market, the pointy S and the (tarted up Gladius) AL7 (a 2017 model)

The Gilles bars are for the Pointy S, there's no way on earth they'll fit an AL7 and probably not on a nekkid anything with a standard top yoke with normal handlebar clamps.
There's no threaded holes in the yoke for them to bolt into.
I reckon what you does need is a pair of proper olde-fashioned ace bars.

If you do a Google image search for "ace bars" there's hunners more to choose from.

Or "jota bars" which are adjustable ace bars.
