Default faired curvy SV top yoke conversion guide?

hi folks, just got my SV650 today, I (used to have a TL1000S at one point.. )
want to do a top yoke conversion to fit renthal ultra lows.
wondering if there is thread with a guide to doing this ?

otherwise, can i just get a top yoke from the unfaired bike and make the change ?

enquiring minds wish to know

If you can find a naked top yoke, then its pretty straight forward.

If you can find one

hmmm, thanks for ze info, unfaired top yokes do seem to be something of a rarity,
if anyone has one for sale drop me a line.
'spose the next best plan is mounting handlebar raisers to a stock faired model yoke... easy enough job ?

Yes, there's a few threads about doing this, use the search luke, use the search luke

I saw quite few yoke conversions for Sv's on Ebay today. About £159

i've been using the search. it's like wading through treacle reading the threads.
as i understand it the stems are different lengths, the S yoke is actually thicker surprisingly so if you fit N yoke you won't be able to get the nut on.

pointers please to a basic guide to drilling the top yoke
