Ex Hornetier moving in - advice please

Thanks for the input to my previous thread about moving from a Hornet to an S, I've done the deed today and put down a deposit on a blue K6 S. I've gone for the fairing lowers but wondered about the Suzuki seat cowl, £66 I think. Am I better off going 'after market' or, for the few quid I'll save, is oem best for quality, colour match etc.

I'm sure I'll be back for more advice once the S is actually in my garage.

You wont regret the switch ive just come off a hornet 600 onto an 03 sv650 k3 and they are great to ride all im missing is a race can to make it sound like a twin should.

that sounds like quite a good price. i got a colour coded one from pyramid and im sure it was about £70 and that was a few years ago oh no wait im thinking of undertray thing sorry ignore me

Last time I lookede the list price from a suzuki dealer for a pointy seat cowl was £42 - £66 sounds like they are having a giggle

'ello

seat cowls should be £42

To say seat cowls are £42 is wrong.

They are NOW £66. Atleast for the K6.

Now they guy would be thinking the dealer is trying to rip him off

Cheers

im near sure i paid 70 for my k4 black and had a 2 month wait well worth it though havent seen an aftermarket cowl that looks good

Quite correct. For the K3 K4 K5 they still show as £42, however the new K6 ones show as £66.

However the usual disclaimer applies, prices can change without notice etc. so they are what they cost you at the end of the day.

My 2p is that the suzuki seat cowl is a good looking piece of kit that matches the styling of the bike well, and is worth at least £66 of anyones money

I have a curvy and suzi are charging £76, anyone recommend a good aftermarket one for less? - my bike is in red,

Cheers
