RE: SV650 Stock Undertray not fitting right

Looks quite bad I know

Right, had a tinker and I think I found (my) problem! I say (my) problem because I think I must of left 2 bolts out by mistake last time I had it apart! Luckily I found two spares which suspiciously look like the one's that were meant to go there! I also noticed that the brake light bracket was bent, so I tried my best to bend it back into what I think is the correct position. The bolts that were missing grabs onto the under tray and has an elongated hole to allow up or down movement in the under tray. So with the brake light back in the correct position and the under tray pulled up while tightening the bolts, all seems well. I hope yours just needs a good fettling with and not like mine with the missing screws haha. Some pics

With all due respect if it wasn't for your thread then I probably wouldn't of bothered to sort it yet. Cheers!

Nah, mine still have the gap, no where near as big as yours though!

Looks like my brake light bracket might be bent, I have a play around last night and didn't get it much better!

My brake light was pushed right up into the fairings, so much so the fairing was sitting on top of it. I've pulled it down so the brake light is just under the lip of the fairing. If you pull your brake light down then undo the side fairing bolts and lift it up, it should then sit correctly.

Had a play tonight, bent the bracket down a bit, pushed the tray up and it now looks dandy, a wee little gap (2mm or so) but not bad, a big improvement.

Makes you think how it got like that in the first place!

I would hazard a guess that when I took the under tray out, it went up and pushed against the rear light, making it bent a bit.
