Headlight and fittings/brackets is the main part unless you want bars and not clipons... then im not to sure. but it can be a bit of money, nothing to bad though.
Best wait for some one with more knowlage.

Sell your S and buy an N. IMHO its a lot less hassle.

Yes! I have been known to drink a bit.
But as mentiond erlier its best to leave it alone and buy a "N"
It was not my intention to step on any ones toes by saying i liked the "N" better:smt056
Problem is that in Norway where I live the sv in general is not a common bike, let alone a "N" Anyway. the one I have looked at has done some 50000km. Is that much, or something too worry about?

Hmm if my maths is right, 50,000km is about 2 and a half of our British Imperial Miles :)

Ok so its actually about 30,000 miles :)

Thats perfectly acceptable for an SV and if the price is right.........

My thoughts would be get the S, see if you like it, and if you dont THEN worry about conversion/resell - if its a bargain to you, you should be able to get the same money back from someone else - if not more :)

You didn't step on any toes.
My post was made in jest. There is sort of a rivalry between models, mostly pointy's vs. curvy's, and to a lesser degree, N vs. S models... but it's all in good fun.
All SV's (and other bikes as well) are welcome here.

Like Soulkiss said...
If you can get a good deal on an "S" buy it.
You can always sell and get a "N" later if you decide to do so.
You may decide you like the features of the "S" better.

What do you mean lesser extent? Fairings are gayer than gay.
