I’ll start with what I’ve done.
When I bought my SV, the previous owner had put on a Hot Bodies undertail kit. Looks nice, but the turn signals are pretty much invisible during the day. So I added some 6″ LED strips on the outside of the rear fairing. The flush-mount front turn signals didn’t do much for straight-on viewing, so I added another set of 6″ LED strips on the front, in a wide V-shape, just below the wind screen. I’ve taken off the rear seat and grab rail and put on the rear set cowl, and I’ve take off the left passenger peg and bracket (soon to ditch the right as well). I did a TPS adjustment to smooth out the low-speed throttle response, and added a Cramp Buster. The latest addition was frame- and swing-arm sliders.
Whew…
Tomorrow I’m going to do a muffler chop, cutting about half the length of the huge cannon on the side of the bike. I’ll keep all the baffles on the inside to it doesn’t get too loud, but it’ll have more of a V-twim rumble instead of sounding like a sewing machine.
I’m going to replace the Puig double-bubble windscreen with a Zero Gravity Sport-Touring model to cut down on the head buffeting at higher speeds. I’ve got some Buell pegs coming that will lower my foot position about 1″. And I’ve got a front fender on the way from some one who wrecked theirs, and I’m going to make it into a color-matched fender extender (as a long time cyclist, I’m totally baffled at the configuration of sport bike front fenders). A rear hugger is a longer-term addition. And when I have to replace the chain (and gears), I’m going to go taller (+2 in front, -1 in back) to get lower RPMs at highway speeds.
And after all that, I’ll probably want another bike…
