should get moto sliders...the bolt goes thru the frame, just about the sturdiest damn frame slider u can buy for the sv. www.motosliders.com

 

yeah i saw those or similar. looks nice. i wanted cheap n quick at the time. of course... im not happy now :P they are so heavy and i dont know why... are lopsided.

 

+1 on motosliders... i want a set.. only reason i keep putting it off is cause my sv came with those white ones...

My belly pan is off a SV1K. It doesnt fit with stock brackets so you have to make your own. But by the looks of your work it seems like it wont be a issue to you. What i actually did (with a buddy), we taped the BP to the engine case and measured the holes and made mock ups, then just kinda worked them a bit and BAM.... you could also just let me know and i'll ake mine off and let you trace them. (which would probably be really easy) Also the SV1K on ebay go really cheap. I think i got mine for like $45 shipped, then i went to autozone, picked a color that was close enough along with some clear coat, prepped it and gave it like 7 coats....

I really wanna do my swing arm, it would just be a PITA to dissasemble all the crap to clean it well... I also want to do my frame black... but if that ever happens i will paint my tank and tail section olive green... lol...

 

flat olive also? almost like the old style military look? i think that could be cool flat or gloss.

ill be on the lookout for that chin spoiler. thanks!

i've seen a local sv with a ducati monster swing arm...that shit looks pimp

 

DANM!!!! i bet... but its big $$$$$$$$$ i wonder how much more than a VFR?.... IMO the SV with clip ons USD forks and a few goodies looks better than a monster... ITs not better, but the SV frame is just sexier... first gen anyways... i would own a monster over an SV though.. (if i could afford maint)

 

SEE?




let me throw my flame suit on reel quick... but yea... hmmmm

edit...

 

Nice bike, I sould have got that SV a few years back as my first bike but I waited too long, I'm still kickin myself for it!!!

 

you can still find them. check svrider.com


i prefer the zook fram over the duc's. seems beefier. def 1st gen over 2nd.

but the stock swingarm is heinous :-/

 

zuk 1st gen frame + single sided swing arm + 180 rear tri spoke wheel...... hawt sex
