Thanks chaps - No not yet booked, im up to my eyes working my day job and "on-the-side" stuff weekends and evenings... its this that payed for the bike, but as soon as i have some breathing space I am going to go get the theory done and crack straight on with the DAS. Hopefully i should be riding in a couple of months time.

Nice bike there - youre right, black nakeds are the shizzle.... seem to be fairly few and far between too, ive not seen many naked sv's but when i do theyre nearly always blue.

So when im road leagal Im thinking Renthal bars (not sure which ones are the closest to the standard suzuki ones.. anyone?)
Bellypan - powerbronze i expect
Maybe twin Bates head lamps but not sure on this as yet
Seat cowl
Fender Extender
New mirrors
and at some point a replacement can so people can hear me, its got a standard pipe at the moment which is perfectly fine for now.

You got any thoughts on these minor tweeks, or maybe id be better spending my money on fuel and riding it )

Yeah not many around. It took me a long time to save for my das but was worth it in the end as i cant think of anything that i would rather have spent the cash on.

Renthal ultra lows are the closest match to oem
Fender extender a must (but you could just fashion your own)
Fuel and play more important than bling
All my extra bits after the above were bought from ebay very cheap or they wouldn't be on the bike above all have fun and ride safe etc

Thats some good advice, yep DAS aint cheap and even then im gonna need to buy a lid, trousers, gloves, boots... so its not gonna be easy to get out for the fun part too soon, but saying that I have the bike now so whether its this summer or next spring at least that part of it is done )

Should have gone for a pointy, but I'll let you off seeing as you're also black and naked
