Not sure. looks OK though.
Just noticed it was on the original front end.

EDIT: thought for a minute it may have been a
stock 07 SV guard of the original front end but
all the pic's i now see look very different.
Mmmmm.... wouldn't mind one though.

[kookaburra]

thanks guys
yeh the front gaurd is the original gaurd of the sv(05)it fitted streight on with a bit of a stretch .
the dash is going to be a small unit the going is going to be slow and the headlight still evades me

[maxter]

Looking good Kooka!
I didn't know you dropped the SV mate,bugger,after all that hard work....so,back to the drawing board eh?
Hope to catch up one of these days,I still owe you a beer or twelve......

britfighter dropped aroung today to pic up a guard for his fighter and was just the insperation i needed to get my A into G . well like i said it was going to be a slow build ,and the going has been slow mainly due to not finding the headlight and money helps .
but have decided to stay with the bug eyes for now and the original dash as i dont mind it .

these are the brackets i made for the screen and lights .
guru boilies try to keep laughter to a minimum , i have feelings too, just gime me time to find them

going to make something to hide the area from the steering dampner to the lights have a couple of ideas that should make it quite unique
and the new flame discs are on now and breaks bled . discs 10mm bigger than standard and 6spot calipers should pull her up now .:D

Looking good there mate keep up the good work

[kiwi60]

Gidday,

I really like what you've done there kookaburra, I'm just waiting to hear back from the insurance company about my own SV1KS, and if it's written off, as I suspect (hope) it will be, then I'll be following your lead.

Cheers

not sure how the inspecters are going to like some of my mods but there's nothing to radical so it should be all good .

[Fight_fan]

Hey Kooka! Really looks the dogs balls now mate! Nice to c somethin good came from ur acco! Congratulations mate, make sure to keep us posted!

[kookaburra]

[slickncghia]

interesting. bike looks tops

you were right though....yellow was a bad choice

[atomic]

looking the goods mate gr8 job

[flyingfatman]

the bike looks absolutely insane
except for the headlights :S i dont like em but hey if you do thats all that matters, right?

[kookaburra]

hi fatman yeh the headlights are more of a comman sense choice . i already have 2 or 3 other choices at home that i decided to settle on but when they got there they looked like shit , so untill i find that elusive headlight that will do for now . the tail is much the same . the bike is never going to be finnished it will be something i am always improving on .
