Thumbs up Newbie SV650 K3 rider, some ?s

Greetings all. Just got myself a k3 650 and its really nice. Is there a decent place to shop for any of the following:-

Hugger
Bellypan
Undertray
Ally water & oil rad covers (not polished)
Seal cowl (do you normally remove the grab rail on the SV)?

The bike is in silver and has had a carbon look hugger, bellypan and undertray but I would like some silver ones if anybody wants a deal!!!
Its also got twin round lights and a fly screen and I would like a standard round headlamp too if there is one around.

And any feedback on the Scorpion stubby can I have seen. Are the Microns any good?

Sorry lots of questions but I had to start somewhere.

Last bikes Hornet, GSXR & Buell now Im a V-Twinner all out forever.

Hello and welcome to the .org

Can't help with shops in Kent but I have oil and water rad covers in the shed that I have taken off my K4 bike. (someone will be along to tell you if they will fit a K3 or not.)

Cheers for the welcome.
Is there more info so I can contact ECBate in Dartford? Thanks krhall

And to DoubleD are those covers ally, as Im not into the polished stainless stuff. Thats all fitted already and I prefer the matt effect ally ones. So please let me know, I can arrange a courier to collect if required.

Crash bungs are an awesome investment.....they look a lot less silly after you pick your bike up and ride it home. Which I have done more than once

You do normally remove the grab rail for the seat cowl, you can get blanks to fit in the space left behind.

How are you finding the drop in power from the other bikes in your list, most people seem to go the other way. I ride a Z750 and the SV and I notice it in the summer, not some much at this time of year though, infact the I prefer the sv in the rain/slippery roads.

I have a scorpion baffled and its good, hasnt fallen off in 2 years and is still shiny, sounds great. Better when your following though, which is really annoying. Its a little loud with the baffle out not excesive but a little to much for the neighbours early mornings/late nights.

Welcome
