The £15 Argos one is great IMO. I have a top of the line £75 one too, which has only been used once. Argos one squashes down small so it's easy to take with you, is cheap if it blows away/is nicked. Fits the SV like a glove, it's not 100% waterproof, but vastly better than not having one. It dries comparatively quickly when it gets wet. The bag it comes in comes with hoops so you can attach it to your pillion seat via the helmet hooks and carry it like a tailpack or lash it to other luggage easily. It can be put on whilst the exhaust is still hot without melting. It's generic and cheap looking so IMO makes the bike a bit less nickable than if it's under, say, an oxford stormex. The list goes on!
