Default Presenting my bike, asking for ideas

Hi!

Thought i should present my current twowheeled love, and at the same time ask for good ideas for further modifications

The bike is a SV650S K3 with the following extras:

*LeoVince SBK titanium slipon.
*Pyramid Carbon hugger.
*Unknown brand Tail Tidy.
*Rear LED Indicators.
*LSL "Superbike Kit"
*FAR mirrors with indicators (Front Indicators Removed)
*Steel Braided brake lines
*Tinted Visor.
*Pyramid Fender Extender.
*Unknown brand Belly Pan.
*Home made Radiator Cover

Current ideas:

*Stickers for the bellypan (Original, ordered from Japan)
*Xenon Conversion Kit.
*High mounted Exhaust. (If i can find a link pipe somewhere...)

...And i am always open for any new ideas...

That was a good idea! What is most important, front fork or rear shock? What shocks fits with as little hassle as possible?

Blanking plates have been manufactured today, nc-milled from 10mm fibreglass epoxy. I´m just waiting for the paint to dry
Jack up kit is not my thing i think... I don´t really like the "German" look.
Crash bung mayb would be a good idea, but on the other hand i never crash

Seat cowl and take the grab rail off. Other than that, once you've filled in the holes left by the indicators, looks good like it is, I wouldnt muck about with it anymore.

You didn't mention the bars in your mods list.

You should also try to find out how to hide the wires from the indicators, it'll finish it off nicely.

Forks first. If you can be bothered, GSXR front end. If not, cartridge emulators work quite nicely.
