wanna change sv650s to sv650n
 

Hi I recently come off my sv650s and was wondering would it be worth changing my sv650s to a sv650n, as the fairings are all damaged and front fairing damaged. would anyone know what i would need to buy to change this? and how much roughly it would cost?

Thanks Joe

will depend if you want to put it to full naked spec with the correct clocks handlebars etc or just do minimum to get back on the road-if its only your fairings and subframe thats screwed you should be able to get all these on ebay for under £150 (colour dependant )

well i know the clocks are the same as the naked one, was thinking i would need new handle bars, new front light and brackets?

Re: wanna change sv650s to sv650n
 

clocks are different-original naked ones will cost mucho money about £150-250 second hand-or you can fit after market ones-honestly think you'd be cheaper fixing

right whats envolved in a s to n swap (genral guide)
new top yoke
rentals
new speedo mount
new speedo back (or custom yourself one) or aftermaket (vapour)
longer cables (clutch and throttle)
lower riders peg triangles
new headlight
bar end mirrors (easyest) or new brake and clutch master cylnders fron a N to hold mirrors

done properly all in £700 (if you can find N clocks etc)
done to work but still look good £200
or easily available = comfort kit £300 + vapour £150 + lowering plates £30 +headlight £50

I thought about this when I binned mine, but in the end just replaced fairings, headlight and fairing/clock bracket for around £200. Your looking at buying new clocks, Headlights and indicators, then you gotta do something with the loom as the faired wiring loom is much longer so you got to either hide it somehow, chop it or swap it for a naked loom.

The clocks are the same but the naked ones have very expensive brackets and plastic covers.

To do it properly you'll need new brake lines, throttle cables, clutch cable, yoke, bars, mirrors, throttle assembly, brake m/c, cluch bracket with mirror mount, headlight & brackets, possibly need to extend the loom. It's not cheap, trust me ;)

If you want to keep the clip-ons, cafe racer style, you just need a headlight, indicators and brackets to attach them. You could get used naked SV parts , aftermarket stuff or adapt stuff from other bikes. Lots of messing about to get the wiring sorted out but it wouldn't cost a whole lot.

If you want to change to upright bars you're looking at bars (naked SV or Renthal etc.) plus a naked top yoke. Starting to get more expensive cause you'll need new brake lines too. Still lots of messing about with wiring.

For clocks, you can keep the S, using some sort of bracket which you could make yourself. Naked clocks seem to be rare and can be pretty expensive.

You can cobble it together but if you want it to look good it'll cost a fair bit.

If you're looking for the easiest, lowest cost option, you would probably be best to buy used bodywork and keep the bike as an S. You can often pick it up in decent condition for not too much money.
