Default Original or not?

Im looking to get back on the horse, and going to see this bike to mo for a tidy sum of 2500 euros.
Just wondering are those stickers original?
Obviously I will know when i see it but i thought i would test all your knoweledge.

Its a 2003 model.

Yes, it should be black.

EDIT: Those are the original K4 stickers.

+1 about the grab rail, but that could just have been replaced, as peeps tend to remove them,

but 2500 euros seem far too expensive.

(just off to check exchange rate)

They are original stickers, just not from that year of SV. The grab rail is also from a silver model too, I would hazard a guess that this SV has been an accident repair.

I saw a bike almost identical to that on autotrader for £2000ono. I'm pretty sure the 03's only came in blue or silver?
How many miles has it done? It would have to be under 5k for that sort of price, but it will probably be around 10k, in which case i would be happy to pay £1800 for it tops.

I might be completely wrong, but has the tank been changed. I'm sure the K3's have "Suzuki" on the tank where the K4 has the small little "S" on it like the tank on that bike does.
