Default please help me. svs to sv

please help me. svs to sv changeover in progress. i took off my fairing today from my 02 svs and noticed the bike wont start anymore. im sure its cause of the wires that are disconnected.

so i need to buy a tach from an 02. will my harnesses wire right up to a sv tach? then i need turn signals and a headlight. where to go for headlights? any help is appreciated. anyone ever done this?

It would honestly be cheaper for you to sell your SVS and buy a naked SV of the same year/condition. What you are attempting is more difficult than you think and will leave you with a motorcycle that will be almost impossible to sell when the time comes.

well dont plan on selling it anytime soon. i keep my bikes and cars for a long, long time, as i customize everything. i think its not gonna be that hard i just need some advice from someone whos done it before.

if i buy the tach from an 02 naked the wiring harnesses should mate right up to it. hopefully. then im gonna fab a bracket to mount the tach. then i just need turn signals and a headlight.
im sure its easier said than done but its what i like to do. customize everything.

Customising it into a naked? That's not very custom, you can buy them like that

My advice would be to phone John at SV Mania - he'll be able to answer any questions you may have - & prob supply you with any nice trick bits you might require !! (and NO, I don't work for them - I've just found them very useful)

SVmania is a uk based online shop. the url is www.svmania.co.uk but at the moment it doesn't seem to be working.
