Question Lowers or Bellypan?

Hi All,
I’m looking to put either a bellypan or fairing lowers on my curvy next month but I’m having trouble deciding.

For the lowers it’s between skidmarx and powerbronze. I’ve only seen 1 side of the powerbronze and haven’t seen any of the skidmarx for the curvy.

I looked in the gallery and the lowers on maviczap and Phoenix bikes look nice. I’d like to know who made them.

For the belly pan the only 1 I’ve seen that I like the look of is by skidmarx.

I would really appreciate any better pics on the above lowers and bellypan.

Neither, spend it on something useful like tyres, suspension upgrades or petrol!

Thank you very much

Mine are Suzuki genuine accessories, but at hard to get hold of. Mine were blue, but sprayed to match my bike. I waited ages for some to turn up on evilbay.

If you're quick Dave Preston has some for sale in the SV & other bits section. Although you must have the brackets to go with them too.

Never seen powerbronze ones or skidmarkx fitted to a curvy

The Suzuki OEM curvy ones are made by a Dutch company and are still available, but are expensive! But you can buy the fitting bracket and other bits seperately from them.

So you could buy Dave Prestons even if he hasn't got the fittings. Have them sprayed to match your bike. Fitting kits were either €59 or €89
