Full fairings look more complete, but from certain angles I think the belly pan looks much better. Plus you'd be able to see more of the nice black frame on your shiny shiny bike. White would be the obvious colour choice for a belly pan, but black could look good like this:

I prefer the bellypan,like to see the engine & less work if you do your own servicing.Would go for white,have a look on Ebay,you might get a bargain.


This is a pic of mine,not sure which one as it was already fitted!

I think the black pan would look good with a few decals!

No idea, saw it on google images when I was first checking out the 650s!
Although I've seen a few different belly pans now, you get the smaller ones which must be OEM, the one I posted up a bit and mines a little different too. Last owner put it on, think it's a racing one since it's got places where oil overspill will collect. Drilled a couple of holes in the bottom (o:

(Also, I've decided, get a black belly pan )

It's personal taste, but I'd definitely have to get fairing lowers.

In my eyes the bike doesn't look finished without them. Although I do take the point about servicing being easier without them. And less to damage in an off!

Either way, a great bike though

I prefer bellypans. They give the sv650s a good look in my opinion.
