personally I like these lower farings

When I get my SV, I'm gonna put those on. I think I'm also gonna change the turn signals/license plate holder. Basically I want that exact bike.

Those are pretty nice too.

I don't like how the fairings will curve around to match the wheel structure. But those don't do it and neither do the other ones posted.

Thus why they're a lot sexier.
Have fun on the open /¦\

That does look drool-worthy.

Hey all,

Thanks to all. My wife was out of town all weekend and was looking forward to a good bit of practice riding. This past Saturday was crappy all day - rain, rain, rain. Sunday was great though - by afternoon, nice and sunny. Took a ride over to a buddy's house. He used to ride but his wife made him get rid of it when their first son came along. He was pretty much drooling...so I let him go for a ride.

Fairings: I definitely like the look of the full fairings - both styles. However, I do like the half fairing that comes stock. In case it does fall over or something, its one more thing to potentially have fixed - and from what I hear its expensive...

suzuki fairings cost like 500 and the jmv concept ones cost like 400. So yeah replacement stinks. As long as your carefull tho :) also the lights I mentioned above are about the turn signals. Stock they look like little wings both front and back. Aftermarket look more smooth :)

putting lower fairings on the SV takes away the bug look! I kinda like the bug look! oh well, someday I may get those blue lowers, but more likely I will get a lower spike instead, completes without adding
