Got my sv! - SV650.org

Bought a K5 sv650s yesterday! 4,500 miles, Red... picking it up next week as its getting a service and extra mot an tax

so gotta wait a week to finally own it....and i aint the most patient person....

Anyway, if anyones got any parts or advice for her as she's completely standard i'm looking for;

Double bubble tinted screen, as i'm rather tall and want more wind protection...
tail tidy...whats the best to go for? hamicad/evotech?
Aftermarket exhaust, thinking about Fuel as i like the small family business vibe and ethos...although blueflame and scorpion are in my mind also. I like slightly higher level cans...
and a seat cowl, Red....

Will hopefully be out on some border patrol meets this summer, and anything thats closer to birmingham really...

You're not too far from us then, if you're Birmingham. We tend to be out and about a fair bit, and there is an EAR rideout on April 13th you may be interested in.
