LOL, thats really nice hovis. I like the second ne as it looks like you have gone too fast down the motorway with the pillion seat not attatched properly!

Black engine, black wheels, black 'zorst, white (ideally inline) front indicators and black seats and it'd look quite nice.

Here's a pic of my pearl white 2008 sv650s I purchased a couple weeks back here in Canada. I'll admit I was a a bit hesitant about the red seats myself (more so because the suzuki pictures make it look pink), but after seeing the finished product (it was still in the crate when I made the purchase), I've grown to love it! It's actually more of a darker maroon color, as opposed to red. I definitely need to start by getting rid of the tail fender and hopefully change up that rear seat cushion to a solo cover to help improve the look a bit...then I'll work on everything else. I'm probably gonna keep the red seat though to stay a bit more unique compared to the typical black seat you'd see on most white bikes...and if I see more of these bikes popping up around the city, then maybe I'll go blue.

Didn't you get a white seat cowl when you bought the bike? My K8 came with the black seat cowl as standard with the pillion seat provided in a separate box. Might be worth having a word with the dealer?

When I picked it up, the dealer said it didn't come with one so I emailed Suzuki to express my disappointment... so they shipped one out to me at no cost...woohoo! Here's what it looks like now with rear seat cowl, HID lamps and smoked turn signal lenses. I should be getting my FE kit and some LED turn signal bulbs in the mail sometime this week. Probably gonna wait till next season to change up the exhaust and add frame & swingarm sliders (apparently Motosliders still doesn't have one designed for full-fairing bodies yet)...then continue with more mods from there.
