cant be that hard, u just need lots of zip-ties(j/k)

If ur bike has no tabs for farings, id assume you need to get some welded on. are you going to use stock plastics or race plastics?

I would think that you could get the newer full faring for an SV to fit on an older model. Unless you just don't want the SV farings, of course.

They make aftermarket fairing kits for the SVs, you just have to search around a bit. A quick search turned this place up, although they're in England. There are kits to add lowers to the stock uppers, or full kits. Full kits are around US$500. Unless you just want GSXR plastics, then you're probably going to be fabbing your own custom brackets and what not, plus paying around the same price for the fairings.
