Default Belly pan or Fairing...?

Hey guys,

Went in my Suki dealer today and sorted everything out!

At the end of this month I will be the proud owner of a brand spanking SV650S in the bluey silver colour!

CANNOT WAIT

Can't decide what accessories to get with it though...

Belly pan or lower fairing What do you reckon

I prefer the bellypans on the pointy SV. But not the OEM one, the Poly 26 one. I'm very picky

The S version must have a belly pan (the OEM version is nice - I have one) but the Poly26 is nicer. The alluminium frame is to nice to be hidden behind a lower fairing.

Pointy or Curvey it doesn't matter in my opinion (Please Note, there's rarely anything 'humble' about my opinion! ) if it's an 'S' then it's gotta be lowers.

Belly Pan = big gap in the middle. Why bother? You may as well have had a Nekkid! :P

Dude, get your bike and wait to see what they look like in real life on someone else's bike first. I did and realised that (I think) the pointy lowers look awful in real life.

Besides, you'll soon realise that there will be a mryiad of other things you will want that are more important. Eg, can, scotoiler, better suspension heated grips etc...

First, learn to speak french There's a company called adrenalin moto that sells Buell its that still has some connection with Poly 26, they were going to get me some stuff till I changed my mind for the 50th time. Or go straight to the company and deal with their inconsiderate foreignness and unwillingness to use email.
