OK, now I have your attention, want to know if anyone has successfully added a third-party bikini fairing to a naked curvey.
I just want something to keep the worst of the weather off me in the winter. I've tried the little fly screens, they divert some of the wind blast, but do not look good and do nothing to divert any chill from your hands. There are some cheapies available with inbuilt lights, but ideally I want one that fits around the existing round headlight. So if anyone has any recommendations for a basic fairing that goes with the slightly retro look of the curvey (not looking to build a street-fighter) and actually diverts some weather than I would be very glad to hear from you. Also any pictures of the naked with fairings added to give me something to aim for/avoid would be good. Thanks in advance, Mark

So is it fair to say no one has successfully fitted a bikini fairing to a naked SV?

Zunkus put a Buell Firebolt one on.
Looked far nice than a normal curvey bikini fairing. FACT! http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.ph...ighlight=buell |

Now that's closer to what I had in mind, but ideally retaining the single round headlamp.
