Any reason why you didn't just buy a Gixxer in the 1st place, your SV is halfway there already

I like the look of those - considered them myself when rebuilding my SV after the write-off, but the issue I have with them is while the SV is a great bike - I wouldn't have put mine back to road condition if I didn't think that, its not a sports-bike.

That fairing is the biking equivilent of a Boob-job.

But then I dont like standard lowers on a pointy for the same reason, although in that case, its more the equivilent of a Wonderbra.

It does look good tho.

I'd worry about the headlights. Aftermarket fairing headlights always seem to be way down on power compared to stock. Looks good otherwise tho.
