Hi Nictry - welcome to the org.

Firstly I understand the sport model (K8 and K9) are fully faired. Thus you need the latest version R&G's for a fully faired SV. Your model (if faired, which I'm fairly confident it is) is SV650S K9 and I believe all pointy parts post K5 will fit. Try and avoid K3 accessories as the pointy model that year had some changes. (General statement, not true for all cases).

The Tibroseat is a std thing. I put the one from my old Bandit 600 on the pillion seat of my pointy and didn't have an issue. I'd say buy one for the year closest to your K9 and you'll be fine.

Avoid the bungs in your link and if you can, fork out for decent protection.

Also, if in doubt, call the manufacturers up and ask 'em. You then have the info and can shop around.
