you leave a considerable amount of imformation out of your OP, like which model you have, however the simple answer is no nothing "fits straight on", that's not to say it's not possible, the race guys have it fairly easy as they don't need lights and stuff, just the basic shell, but all require fab on the mounting of some kind.

In the past I've fitted an RS250/748 and a Rickman touring fairing to sv's, admittedly some time ago, the quality of the fit was directly related to the attention to detail applied, in each case other issues were encountered and modifications to both fairings and bar/cables & wiring were needed.

Cheers Mark.

sorry rictus left open due to not paying attention.

thinking onto OP never attempt to use out from a Buell
have a look through Berlin's Wonderbucket Project there is some spiel about fitting other fairings http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=153136
