SV650SK3 swap or sell.

Got a fully faired sv 650s in blue, k3 hugger cowl, led indicators etc.

Lovely condition 7k miles.

Have to regularly ride 300 miles to Bournemouth, looking to swap for a more comfortable tourer er6f, street triple etc...

Or as advice, would putting normal bars on make a difference? The last hundred miles seem to be murder on my wrists and legs at the moment....

Thoughts on bikes?

Would also sell for 2k fsh etc

Try leaning on the tank and thus not carry your weight on your wrists. It will also cause less drag, so better fuel economy.

Tried but I am getting a little old and that just gives me back ache lol.

It's it worth spanking a couple of grand to upgrade toa striple?

wouldn't say the triumph could be called a tourer,or that any street triple owner would want to swap his bike for a sv,but if you want a cheap reliable long distance tourer,on a budget! then buy old vfr800,or a deauville or even a bandit 1200/1250

Don't get a street if you do lots of miles. Will depreciate like a lead weight, and they aren't very comfortable for high mileage (I have one)

I had the same problem,kept the bike & bought the comfort kit,its like a different bike,love it.

If its only aches you have think about the kit,you can ride it all day no probs.

Someone called Matt on here does sell a conversion kit, I think Bibio could narrow him down for you, it's supposed to be much more comfortable but talk to those two and see what they say.

I had a matt yokes comfort kit, feels like such a different bike to ride, but actually preferred the clippons as I only ride short distances.

Matt is BANNED. me on the other hand i'm close to it... lol

'Topyokes' is Matt's company. he is a bit of a plonker but his products are very well made and fairly priced.

comfort bar kits are the doggyzzz dooodazzz on the SV and turn it into a much nicer bike to ride.

Cheers gents advice appreciated! !
