I like someone with a sense of humour willing to put time and money into proving that.

My biggest issue with it was how the neck is now triangulated with a Bluetooth front engine mount.

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
As the owner of a Gen 2 SV650 I disagree,there's no way that's a Gen 2 fairing,the front view looks like the earlier Gen 1 curvy, & the view from the cockpit is totally different to a Gen 2.Here's the advert & images https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/365082124569 ...

Check image No 9 & 16.I don't know what theyr'e from but it's definitely not a Gen 2 SV650.

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
Wifey owned the first model SV650 which is how I know it's from that.

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
Looks like one of those fairings (maybe Powerbronze) that you used to see in the M&P catalogue for NTV650s and GS500s.

That'd be my guess, that faring isn't SV or Fazer.KungFooBob wrote: Sun Dec 15, 2024 9:04 am Looks like one of those fairings (maybe Powerbronze) that you used to see in the M&P catalogue for NTV650s and GS500s.
