 I wish I knew the story behind this. Bike cop shows up on his police Harley (still sporting the sidecar from the winter - awesome), parks it, and hops on this YZF and drives away. I saw him a minute later with a cop car with lights on following him. Another officer plus car stayed at the gas station, presumably to look after the cop's bike. I didn't see any other activity so I don't know if they'd confiscated it from someone or if it was left at the gas station or what. It was pretty funny to see the cop in his white half helmet and knee-high leather boots folded up on that little bike. The other officers seemed to be getting a kick out of it too. ought ten fucked around with this message at 20:53 on Apr 12, 2011 |

Really really hope you made "do a wheelie!" motions at him when he rode by.

I had a cop pull up next to me on a sport bike once. I'm guessing he was off duty because from my experience he wasn't wearing the standard motor wear around here (he was wearing a polo)

Ignore the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QResGbb5-U Rolling through Montana on the 200/87/3 from Great Falls to Glendive. The road and Big Sky Country waiting to tear away my problems like I tear away the rubber from the tires on my bike eating up the miles to my next dose of reality. For a while I can be free, but I can never escape the pull of gravity.

SV650SF, they only sold them during certain years it seemed like (or dealers just didn't carry them often)

My old 2007 SF. The fairings for the latest gen can be had for about $300 on the bay or CL if my memory serves correctly.

You guys actually like side fairings?  Naked bikes are my favorite, with bikini fairings coming in second. But plastic covering up the engine totally ruins a bike for me.

The previous owner put them on the bike. Apparently that particular type of lower fairing was only available on European curvy SV's? Or he could've been full of it. Either way it seems to make the SV not seem to "jawless".

Ridin' hard Now why can't someone put something like this in production instead of those gaudy chrome-overload full baggers that HD insists on spewing out? I'm not sure what I like about it or why, but it's something alright.    http://www.bikerspost.com/forum/topics/there-is-motorcycle-sweetness
