They look nice, only prob is mines a curvey, forgot to state that, but as long as i know it is possible

I dont like it....it makes it look like its trying to pretend to be something its not...a sports bike!

Also what happens if you have an off....no cheap fairing on ebay but a respray etc.

By the time you have paid for it to have been painted, sorted the rear shock/forks, can,tail-tidy etc and whatever other mods you do, you could have had a sports 600 anyway. Thats my logic why i never really did much to my bike......no point spending 1-2k on top of bike value.....when you could have a way better bike for the money!

Does nothing for me, sorry. Looks awful.

Why would you want to make your SV look like a GSXR. It'll look terrible.

Why not do something original with the paint job ?

IMHO of course.

Its your bike, with time,patience and practice, ANYTHING is possible.

In fact think we need a new sticky in the photo forum

So heres a thread, maybe it will become sticky, maybe it wont as it could be seen to be too similar to the "You and your Bike" thread, but the focus should be on the bike

True! It needs a paint anyway i just thought maybe it might look alright.

Yeah, why would anyone want to ride around on a tube of toothpaste when
they can have a tasteful monocolour bike?
