Default new member / dual headlight question

Hi everyone, im a proud new member of the boards and owner of an 01 for street duties. (use a 636 for trackdays)Im glad to see so many great mods avail for the SV!

's a photochop, not a real bike. Look at the way the weird oil-cooler thing sticks in front of the front wheel, and the top of the front pot's gone missing. Looks good apart from the flaws in the actual image though- I like the sticky-out headlights a lot.


Jonboy just fitted a twin headlight setup, Bates I think...

I reckon it's real, they've just gobe overboard with the Photoshop effects and the lines have gone over the top of the front cylinder.

Yes I have just put on twin lights (no pics yet) and they were the chrome ones from Busters. Easy to fit (though what to do with the wiring is a pain) and looks really good.

to quote arnie "your one ugly mother fu*ker"

Why do some of the lines look so off set and the front lights look like they dont line up??

Also looks like the person shortened the front fender even more. Aside from the forementioned discrepancies, it is a fine looking bike.

I've been trying to work out what bike it reminded me of.

Speed Twin! Though personally I think it looks more Buelly.

It's definately a chop, look at the oil cooler thing- it overlaps in front of the front wheel. Looks great though.
