Not sure if Nate realised he would be paying international postage, but he said he would take $5 each off 5, or $10 each off 10.
So I reckon £35 could buy you a set of these for your curvy or pointy

Really messes me up as I was relying on R & G 's to fit my fairing lowers, but I figure what's the point of spending £102 if they aren't going to work.

Just let me know if you want & I'll order and post to you. - Price subject to change depending on numbers, will confirm before ordering.

They also do Swing arm sliders and spare parts (priced at a third for each side and the bolt) - Let me know.

Yeah, the price can add up, as I mentioned in this thread I payed £66 for front and rear sliders (including international shipping), and then ended up paying £21 on duty and the parcelforce 'release' fee. So 87 quid all in!

A group buy is excellent idea though (why didn't I think of this two months ago! )

Yes as per replies above they are reconsidering, but if I can get an idea of numbers I'll find out what can be done.

Import duty/VAT shouldn't be too much.

Even at £45 it's half the price of R&G's.

Thanks Marc for your experience, but people please note his prices included swingarm sliders as well.

Anyone visiting USA?

Stu369.......

If you can figure out how much it will cost you to order me a set and then send them across the pond to Ireland I may well be in too!!!

Doubt it'd cost too much to post them from there to here.

Reckon it'd still be cheaper all in than what it may cost me over here.

If it's too much hassle let me know.

Cheers!

Could you count me in for ordering some too please. I wasn't sure which ones to go for but seeing as how it seems to be 50-50 between these and the r&g ones then i'll go with these for the price.

That is assuming they will fit ok on an unmodifyed K5 sv650s? (please excuse me if I ask stupid questions, i'm still learning!! )

Yes the same ones fit all SV650s. The only adjustment is you would need to cut your lower fairings if fitted.
