Nearly There.
 

I have now got my 2016 SV just about perfect for me so hopefully this be of use to others. I had the pleasure of spending the day at Fuel Exhausts in Kendal last week as they used my bike to make up the pattern for this model the standard of engineering and the quality of the product is absolutely first class so much so that I came away with a Black stainless Oval Diablo which I am very pleased with. The small team at Fuel are really nice people which is always a bonus and I would recommend them and their products without hesitation. This week also saw the arrival of an MRA screen supplied by the very helpful HPS. Once again top quality product and first class service. The screen makes a huge difference for me at 5' 6'' transforming cruising at speed into a joy as opposed to an endurance event. I had the seat done by Core of Lincoln and the bike is very comfortable not like that instrument of torture that is the original equipment. A Puig hugger has been fitted and looks like original equipment so nice, R&G tail tidy, essential so as not to offend one's eye with standard rear end. Mirror extenders have increased the field of rear vision greatly. Radiator guard for piece of mind, heated grips by Oxford with Grip Puppies and a nice pair of Michelin PR4's complete the package, Only waiting for Pyramid to get their finger out with the Fenda Extenda and I think I'm done. Love it to bits, very happy and all for not a lot more than six grand. BARGAIN.

Just so I can hopefully save someone this sort of rip off. When I took out my insurance for the bike with Bennetts I specifically asked them if there would be any additional charge if i fitted a road legal end can and I was dualy informed that there would not. This morning wishing to "do things properly" I called Bennetts to tell them that I had indeed fitted said can and was again informed that this would not affect the initial premium but there was an administration charge of £32, Outrageous.

Follow up : Made a complaint and got £32 refunded. Motto, don't just accept things from these companies.
