Here are a few pics I took last night of my '09. I'm about to order some MotoSliders and a Joe Rocket Manta tank bag and I'll be done until I decide to tackle the front/rear suspension. I've already dropped it once at low speed (dang rocks) so hopefully the sliders will help if that ever happens again. Anyways here's the pics........

How short are you??

I'm about 5' 10" with a 30" inseam. With the seat mod (good for a 1/2") and the KoubaLinks (good for 3/4") the bike is just right for me.

Good looking ride!

looks really good. those black forks look a lot better than the old silver ones. IMO

Already dropped it! That sucks. But those sliders I hear suck the **** J-bolt needs to be modified somehow. Just FYI prolly won't help you at higher speeds.

I dropped it with only 54 miles on the odo. I was only going about 10 mph max and that j-shaped tubing completely broke at the weld joint. I welded it back together waiting for MotoSliders to put his no-cut sliders into production. Now that they're out I'll probably order a set very soon. The fairing was also scraped up pretty bad but after some sanding and touching up I was able to get it looking somewhat decent. The only scratch that is still noticeable is the one you see in the picturess.

Looks good with some nice mods so far

You know, the SV has had a long run. 99' to 09' with only one significant model change really. What a great bike.

can you tell me why you kept the hand on with the seat cowl. I have seen people do that before, but I don't see why. your bike looks good I have to say
