Yeah, you're right.  I've never seen a sv650 before... so this looked a lot like a gs  ;)

it is a naked SV, with Buell double lights and screen, looks like a GSXR rear duck tail, after market slip on, looks like different rear wheel, rear sets, clip ons and if I'm not mistaken looks like R1 front brake calipers as well, thats about all I see I'm guessing suspension upgrades as well but we can't see that :thumb: :cheers:
