Default To decal or not to decal?

To decal or not to decal...that is the question....

Got the bike back together!!! (and running well)
However I can't seem to locate a matching fairing decal.
Mine is silver lettering outlined in black (see pics) but..... most including this one I got off ebay have black lettering outlined in silver.

Would you take them both off???
Seek out a match???
Put 2 of the other kind on??


I don't care too much the black lettering....but....
I think I'll make this a poll...and go with the .org's opinion.


Ready to ride!!!



No Decal



Original decal

Personally i'd take the stickers off and leave it without either of them on. It looked better plain. But do what you feel, it's your bike.

you could PM Paul the 6th and ask him to do you some 'SV650.org' decals, as an alternative. I think the fairings look odd without anything on them, but thats just my opinion, and your welcom to have it..lol

I have Pauls decals on my rear plastics and a little discreet one on the exhaust side of my swingarm

I say no decals at all, but then both of mine are de-decalled.
