Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
Could probably win the Turner prize, Tracy Emin ' the unmade bike'
Totally hideous

Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
Its not my style but I can appreciate it, looks like a lot of work went into it.
Far better than a bike with a pipe and some stubby levers that's classed as "customised"... |

Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
I'm not sure which one, that link just takes me to a page of "scrambler" type bikes?

Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
They are not my preferred style, but they do look complete and well thought out.

Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
Looks like the sort of tosh you see in MCN drawn by Juan Kerr, or on some random stand at the NEC. Or, to put it another way, hideous. By that I mean, if you value form over function by around 100%, you're still going to be disappointed.
I feel I am about to find out it has been built by an org'er. I trust you have a plough to put on the back. |

'Let's customise the SV650 AL7'
Lets not. At least not like this. I have to accept the craftsmanship is good but the basic ideas are horrible. Can't stand these 'customisations' that detract from the bike's utility & useability. especially on an SV650 which is an honest bike thats made to be used. At least they didn't remove any of the suspension or brakes - true retard 'mods' right there. Last edited by Decade; 09-12-17 at 07:38 PM. |

Re: Let's customise the SV650 AL7
It leads to an interesting idea though - what about a customisation that makes a bike more practical - a bigger fuel tank, more luggage options, better suspension - & no reason you can't tart up the looks at the same time.
Look what people do worldwide with Honda's awesome CRF250L - those are mods I rate. |
