For the SV JHS bungs were the ones to go for, unfortunately no longer made and Motosliders are the the top on the list. Problem with these type is that you have to cut a hole in the fairing, not noticeable when the bung is on if done correctly.
Alright Dangerous Dave,

Well i've had the R&G ones fitted, got my fairing fitted today, skidmarx one and it's ****! It looks cheap and nasty, so considering genuine Suzuki fairing or just a bekky pan. What do you reccommend?

Tried R&G for front fork protectors they only do them for the Sv1000. Looked at most companies but to no avail.

I know i have them on mine!

I know they wont fit the 650 either because the forks on the thou are a different size.



Beware of Wideboy he likes to surprise people!!

Id say genuine suzuki lowers are best option, have a look on ebay for some bargain lowers.

if you buy from ebay make sure they come WITH the fitting kit, most people buy cheap lowers from ebay without the fixings then have problems.

Monty,

I had the fairing on my bike and now due to my accident have just the Suzuki belly pan, if you want to see a pic of them both let me know - lowers I had on were Suzuki originals too.

I quite like just the belly pan look now she named again, but the fairing were nice too ! FInances ain't it.
