Default Handguards for a faired pointy

I remember reading another thread about handguards, and someone said the DL650 vstrom ones fit the SV without any mods -
http://www.suzuki-gb.co.uk/accessori...on_road&search[range]=on_vstrom&search[model]=&search[year]=undefined&search[keyword]=&offset=0
are those the ones I want? (£34.00).

I've asked Suzuki Hyde to get me a set in but it's been 4 weeks now and no sign of em, every time I ring he says ring back next week.

Missed off my question: anyone know of a better place that's likely to have them in stock?

I'm looking for some too and apparently they should be around £25 from a suzuki dealer. So the ones on ebay are overpriced.

The dealer quoted me £34 and the suzuki site says £34 so if you can find em for £24 let me know please

Yup, very good handguards, now £34 on the suzuki site, I think they were cheaper before. Just try anyother suzuki dealer you can get to, or are willing to post to you. Unless there's a shortage in the country, very surprising that a dealer is taking so long

Contact Robinson's, they are number one for Genuine Suzuki stuff in my opinion.

They had them in stock, and a couple of quid cheaper than RRP, cheers

Good handguards for weather protection, but not so good for crash protection.
