Default New rear end

Are tehre any rear ends (plastics) from sports bikes (also the subframe) that can fit on without too mnuch difficulty onto a curvey S?

I was thinking of something like hte '04 CBR RR or something like that.

Similar situation with front end? (plastics)

Would love to put one of these on the back

HOw hard would it be to fabricate a subframe for that? surely tehre's not much to it?

Would compliment my yellow SV nicely, can even pick up some white vinyl and split up hte pattern on the rest of the bike.

Suppose if you bought a subframe from the duke you could mod it, but then theres the wiring to change etc

Why make you SV look like a CBR, why not just buy a CBR.

I'm not a fan of stuff like this, its a bit like walking in to Halfords and buying all manner of stick on tat and making your 1.1 litre saxo look like a race car...

But if it floats your boat then why not. I belive that the K5 GSXR fairings can be made to fit without to much trouble if thats the sort of look you are going for...
