The firstthing I did to my SV was to add a topbox. Previous owner(s) had changed the exhaust, fitted a bellypan and crash bungs (and hugger and fender extender)

My first modification was crash bungs

Then later on an exhaust, then a tail tidy, then braided lines and recently a exhaust hanger and black screen

SV1 - Tank Pad, to protect the tank from zips.
SV2 - New Reg/Rec (Because it was broke, put a CBR6 one on there), but mod, Stubby can, for the sounnnnd.
CBR - Tank Pad, to protect from zips again.
SV3 - Iridium DB screen, because I hated the standard screen at 90mph.
SR - First mod is going to be some shocks I've seen

Set the suspension up for my weight, first addition rear hugger to keep the crud off difficult to get at places and protect the rear shock.

For me the very first modification I have done to my SV SK09 Sport is put a tail tidy on it. I wanted to use the original indicators and rear No. plate light so I bought the Hamicad. Easy to fit. Took me around 2 hours and it looks sweet.

In the future I plan to fit a Double Bubble, Rear Hugger and a new Exhaust and possibly somg crash bungs.

I had bungs fitted at the dealer when I bought it.

The first mod I made myself was to fit heated grips.
