Are the fairings still wonky at the front? Is there anything you can do about that?

Looks good though

Still ugly

Ditch the rear pegs, and put the lower fairing back on

Is it just me or do the Suzuki stickers look a bit squint on the tank?

[alun111]

Nice job half lyfe, so what did you do to the engine - rebuild or new one?

the downpipe you can see is very ugly, isn't there a bit of fairing that covers that and the engine?

Where/how did you get the tank repaired? What was the damage to it?

My SV650SK3 has a big dent in the top of the tank where it blew over in this bloody wind we are having of late and fell against a vertical pole. I assumed it wasn't repairable.

I was looking at 2nd hand tanks but no silver about so was thinking of getting another colour then getting it repainted. New replacement tank is £400, forget that.

You have done a cracking job there, infact you have done a amazing job when you think about how simple you are ahaha

really like the twin pipe and is that a integrated brake light ?

[Ben.]

the front doesnt look bent to me...
cant be assed to spend money on fairing lowers when it will be sold within 3 moths max, probably sooner

Glad you aren't bothering with lower fairings, they look naff. The SV is a half-faired bike and it should stay that way, gives it character.

Good job mate, FZR might be on the road soon, why you selling the SV?

Nice bike mate, Is it that loud when your riding it? Or does the helmet block some of the noise.
