The KG fairings are pretty decent... The best option for this would be the old 2 Wheel Junkie full fairing, which I think was made by Armor Bodies, but I've no idea where you could find one of these. Superior fit and finish, basically.

There's also these guys... Never seen one in the flesh though.

out of curiousity, could a full fairing set (as stated above) be fiitted to an SV650 that didnt have them fitted as standard.

I think what im trying to say if nobody has understood, is this:

Basicly, could you fit a full fairing set to a naked SV650?

Or make your own to support the fairing, or get a race bracket kit. Yep, can be done.

All depends on how good a job you want Fairing mounts = B&Q ally strip cut and bent to size, anyone could do the basic ones, it's just down to patience and not drilling a hole in your face while eyeing up a mounting point The wiring's a wee bit more fiddly but soldering's not a hard skill to get reasonable results from, and it's very useful to know. I taught myself when I was working on guitars, and those are fiddly.
