I saw on svrider.com that somebody had put a pointy front fairing on a curvey. He liked it, I didn't think much to it though.

that would be an easy job to fibreglass over, to be honest i've heard them projector lights are a bit crap. i want to get it but find some lights that i could mount behind the other holes and fill the two round holes in, but i cant really justify spending £500 on a new fairing and another few hundred painting it, when i have a fully faired painted bike that didn't cost much more to buy

Hmm, looks like the GSXR600/750/1000 fairing made to actually fit the SV, kind of like mine but rather better fitting and with lights.

Druid
so did you buy the gsxr track fairing and modify it to fit? how easy/hard was that to do, and whats the fit like?

i really want a more aggresive looking fairing, but that twinshack one its almost £500 all in, how much is the gsx fairing?

I gotta say fastdruid, that looks really smart. Does the GSXR stuff need much modifying to fit on? How about the seat unit, what did you do with the subframe, use the GSXR one and modify it to fit?

It looks so seriously cool, that I might just have to do it to my bike one time in the future!
