Crash bungs for 2000 sv650s with full aftermarket fairing?
Hi all,
Had a look around the forum for other threads regarding frame crash protection for my year of sv650s with a full fairing. But can't find much. Anyone know or bought the correct ones for my model? I'm thinking about just buying a set that look like they will fit and modifying them. Cheers in advance for any help |

You can get R&G ones for the full fairing I believe. I didn't have the fairing lowers on mine though, but the crash bungs are good.
You might struggle because the fairing lowers were never official for curvy's I believe? |

Miotosliders also do very good sliders, which were IMO better than the original R&Gs. The newer R&G are no cut fit, but I have not heard how they perform in the event you need them.
Motosliders to fit a curvy... http://www.motosliders.com/MS-1.html |

If you don't want to do that, then R&G's are the next best thing, no cutting or sanding required. I've got R&G's on my fully faired 2002 SV, piece of cake to fit, so long as the bolts come undone. Some folk have had problems, I didn't.

Nice one, cheers.
I've had a look at both those companies online, these bungs are expensive. I did find some on eBay lastnight No Cut Frame Sliders Crash Protectors for Suzuki SV650 SV1000S 1999-2009 DL1000 Any thoughts? Much more in my price range right now, as I've just bought the bike. |

Cheap ones may fail in the event of a crash and will not save you an expensive bill, whereas Motosliders & R&G might. Ya pays ya money, ya take your choices

Re: Crash bungs for 2000 sv650s with full aftermarket fairing?
I've been looking at R&G bungs for a while now. They look & sound like the business. I don't want to get them fitted by the garage because:
a). Garages cost too much per hour on top of the price of the bungs. b). The bungs are supposed to be really easy to fit - even for novices. c). I believe that everyone should be trying some simple mechanics to learn about their bike. However, after looking at my fully faired K2, & looking at various pictures, I'm not convinced that they'll fit without some sort of fairing mod. The image shown by Maviczap, shows a plate between the engine/frame bolts. Does the R&G kit come with these plates & spacers? I have seen on R&G's web site that the bungs are bike specific - does that mean that all the extra parts come with the kit for that bike? |
