Ah yes good point. My comments about wiring & clocks relate to the curvy.

I have a pointy sv, 2005, would the wiring still be a problem? and if its cheaper to buy the fairing again would u know where i could get some cheap fairings then?

if you going the naked sv route ditch the normal clocks and run a vapor i think they are much nicer than the stock clocks

If you're patient you can often pick up fairing panels on ebay for not much money. Patience is key though. The "Buy It Now" prices are quite often fairly optimistic but if you can find an auction with a low starting price and do a bit of sniping right at the end of the auction you can get a bargain.

If you can find something misdescribed on ebay that can be a real gift. Search for SV, SV650 and SV650S. Also search for mis-spellings e.g. Faring.

If you fancy the naked conversion go for it, but it can get expensive if you get carried away.

I was just thinking the conversion into the naked would be alot easier then getting all new fairings, as i would have to get the a new front nose cone, and the left hand side fairing and thanks for all your help!

Far to many other bits to change to make it worthwhile unless you are doing it for the riding position. Fairing panels are always popping up on eBay; unless you are desperate then you could just patch your own together with fiberglass and wait for some decent ones of the right colour to turn up.

+1 to mike, as i the resident org crash test dumby can confirm fixing it would cost 1/4 of the price compared to "street fightering it"
