SV Rearseat and Bodywork
 
I would like to get a rear seat cover (cowl?), rear hugger and some other bits and pieces for my '03 pointy (?) but am not too sure where to go for these items.

Also I have heard some good things about a scottoiler and am thinking of getting one fitted, any good?

Anyone have any ideas? Pref south london of north kent would be good.

Offical Suzuki seat cowl is the best, £43 from your dealer.

Just found my local dealer and you are right £42 inc VAT. Is it easy to fit, even for a total div like me?

Yep, it'll take you 5 mins.

5 mins - I really have no skills in that area!

Will it come with idiot (Kev) proof instructions?

Scottoilers are brilliant, get one ! No more "I know my chain needs oiling 'cos it p*ssed it down but I can't be arsed 'cos its too cold, I'll do it tomorrow"- meanwhile chain rusts and you are in too much of a hurry in the morning. Specially as the SV has no centrestand and oiling tyhe chain is more of a chore than normal.

Scottoiler does it all for you - fit and forget. They say it extends chain life up to 7 times, I would say more than that.

all you do is take the rear seat off using your key and put the seat cowl on in the same way that you would put the seat on! simple30 second job!! :wink:

Right I'm going to have a go at the seat cowl then, sounds like a plank like me might just manage it!

Now how about the scottoiler? Easy to fit or is there somewhere I can get it fitted?

b1kerb0y 30-11-06 10:00 PM

the scottoiler... no idea. but i no that some model bikes need modifying. theyshould in theory be easy to fit though. if in doubt then get your local dealer to fit it. you have to make sure it on right!! :D
