Default Converting SV100S into a Nekkid?

How cheap can it be done?

What things would i need? I want the higher bars, so would need a nekkid top yoke and bars but what else?





EDIT: That'll be a SV1000S

Not certain the naked top yoke will fit the faired bike, Saeed has a nakedised SV1000S, perhaps you could ask him what was done yoke wise with his bike. Other than that you'll need longer hoses and possibly wiring for the switches will need replacing/extending.

And a bin bag for the smashed fairing parts.

Do they not do a kit from an aftermarket supplier that you can fit ?

Maybe you could just remove the fairing if it's damaged and keep the low bars ala cafe racer? Looks ace that way.
