Show us your pointy

Mine are held on with some Scotch sticky pads, like velcro but stronger and more re-usable...forgotten what they're really called.

I've only ever stuck them on once during the day (you can just see the lights through them) and was going to use them on a track day, but never bothered.

Sorry Nobby, im still not a fan
They cheapen bikes imo and serve no extra purpose, but each to their own i guess.

+1, get rid of those random stickers and you've got yourself a truly stealth machine right there!

The V-twin sports and the 650 stickers have gone already. I quite like the SUZUKI and Racing stickers, especially as they take your eye off the tarmac rash on the rhs lower.

I know some people must like them or they wouldnt exist, but my 3 main (possibly only) reasons for not liking them are:
1. You must have all seen some GSXR parked up (usually outside halfrauds) with a set of lime green ones stuck wonkey on the front and it makes me just think - WHY? It gives me the same sort of feeling as when I see a Corsa with a dusbin as an exhaust.
2. It is hands down a brilliant example of form over function, and as a yorkshire bloke that doesnt really appeal to me If its bought then it must serve a purpose and "cos its pretty" doesnt count as a function.
3. If it was the light cluster that tinted/smoked then it would look mint and truely stealth (consistant lines, smooth panel transition etc) but these stick on covers are anything but smooth or consistant, they're literally stuck on - and they look it.

From the front nobby your bike looks very stylish but the profile exposes that they're not flush and it cheapens the look. That is totally my opinion and Im not going to think less of someone who has them its just not my cup'o'tea.

Looks good, what's the full spec as I'm keen to sort myself out with an all weather SV before winter. My additions were going to be rear hugger, fender extender, DL 650 hand guards and heated grips. If I have the reddies I was going to add a Givi top box with brake light plus flasher, some full exhaust system, gel seat, HID's and a clear double bubble.

Not many modifications but a few aimed towards comfort like

Matt's top yoke with raised handle bars (comfort kit)
Oxford sports heated grips
DL hand guards (taken off now)
Mirror extenders and blind spot add-ons.
MRA Vario touring screen
Givi V46 complete system from ebay.it for about 215 pounds all inclusive.
Pipewerx exhaust

As accessories I have the Garmin 550 satnav and Scala Rider Q2 headset.

Thinking on adding a Scotoiler, a more comfortable custom seat, a bagster tank cover + bag and perhaps the givi lights kit.
