Hey everyone, my name is Justin. I just picked up an 02 sv650 yesterday. It had less than 3000 miles on it and it looks absolutely gorgeous. It is my first bike and I've already taken the msf course. My plan for the bike is to make it into a streetfighter. I was just wondering if anyone has any input on what all to change out to give it a more streetfighter look.
Thanks in advance

I just purchased it yesterday. The older gentleman who I got it from bought it a couple of hours away from here. Everything on it is brand new. It still had the factory tires on it from 02 that still look brand new

Hallo and welcome along. Seems a shame to be pulling such a lovely clean SV apart. I'd suggest riding it as is for a while first. Stick some fairing lowers and a seat pod on it and away you go!

...imho it would be a shame to mess that sweet cherry up...

...at least wait until you crash it...

...that is what most people will think is the reason behind your mods anyway...

...I would look for a wrecked one to make "streetfighter" out of...

...that SV just might be the "best year"...

...on another note, removing the fairings before he crashes could be good....(grin)
