Suzuki made the SV to be a budget bike so barring engine and frame most other things are the same on both bikes to keep production costs down .Some panels do have wider mountings due to said larger frame and engine . However , saying that , there still is no gaurentee the silver will be exactly the same shade as the rest of the bike . This really is no bad thing . My yellow tank is a resprayed blue one at heart and to the passer by it looks fine but when you get close you can see the difference in the shades . This is a common necassary evil I'm afriad . I am not sure how many different shades of silver suzuki have produced but I imagine that someone on thie site will be able to help you out there .
If you are going to ride it to get checked out just be damn sure to take it easy best to get there late in one piece tahn not at all .

PS you can leave the stickers on and pretend its a thou or just use a hairdryer and patience (spelling) and peel them off .

I have just taken another look at the photos and see that the bike has no lower fairings . This will work in your favour as there is no other paint(except the tank) near to where the new one will be mounted and so any diffrence in shades will be less noticable .

Brilliant, really appreciate your help guys.

I'll have a bash at straightening front subframe with a scaffolding pole, if not, how much am I looking for a 2nd hand one of them?

Also, I've secured the front nose fairing (probably) but does anyone have the black plastic bits that go at the sides?
