I bought my 99 curvy last year. It too had been converted from a S to a N along the way and sprayed black from the original yellow.
The changes made were: Top Yolk. Renthal bars. Headlight. Brake lines. Powerbronze fly screen. Throttle cables. Choke cable (but i'm not 100% sure?). Rerouting of wiring loom, caused a bit of a problem with the MOT as it impaired the left hand steering lock. Easily fixed. Brackets for clocks. Upgraded fork springs, not essential but worth doing at the time. The front brake master cylinder & clocks were retained. I got some clamps for the mirrors that easily fitted on. I like the look and feel of the wide bars and more upright positon as it suits my 6'-2" frame. I have never ridden a standard S so cannot really comment on the difference. I'm not a big fan of clip-ons though. It all depends what you want. |

I'm pretty sure I've seen a pic on here of a curvy S with no fairing but lights clocks etc mounted on the front subframe. Looked strangely cool.
