Why must people make something bad out of a good thing?! - SV650.org

Hey,

OK. Firstly, if this offends you because you've done this to your bike or even worse, it is your bike, then I am sorry in advance. No hard feelings just my honest opinion.

So my buddy and I were talking on MSN sending images of SV's back and forth... and I kept coming across crap like this:

What is your opinion on this? Do you give them credit for doing something different making their bike unique? Or are they wrecking something good? Meh, just wanted some more opinions.

Line them up and shoot them.

That looks horrible.

yuck!

HAHAHA

I'm the guy on MSN that he's talking about, and I was actually tempted to do something like that headlight on the 1000. I even bought a headlight from an '04 gsxr750, but decided not to put it on.

I just think it's funny that Mitch hates the things that I think are interesting... except, I definitely don't like the fairing that the guy added on top of that gsxr1000 headlight. There are definately some stupid mods out there.

Hey,

I guess I should say, I am not referring to the copper colour...

That's a given!

I don't like the first one at all, but at least the second one is going for a specific style and seems to have made a good job of it.

Only in America!

Agreed, these people should be shot!

I quite like the second one.

The second one os strange. NakedCDN I'm sure we would enjoy seeing more of that which Mitch doesnt...

Look, I'm sure Suzuki had the best intentions when they changed to a pointy design. It just didn't really work out is all [runs and hides]
