    I have a K6 S and have ridden a K7 N, from what I remember of the cluster, lights etc on the N, I couldn't imagine putting the standard fairing on it unless the fairing you have is not the OEM one and designed for a convertion or a curvy SV which I have no idea about. Personally, I think it would be cheaper and eaiser to buy an S model than convert one.

    Try one of the SV specific forums, www.svrider.com/forum or forums.sv650.org for example, I'm sure you're not the first person to think about this option and you'll probably get more info on those forums.

    I'm also confused by this request, I have an 08 sport model (fully faired) and the lights are housed in the fairings whereas the naked model seems to have a bandit style round lamp that wouldn't match the fairings.

    Here's a pic of mine for reference:

    yea done it lol what.
    Ii found was that in order to move ur sv into an sv 650 s was simple. on the side of the bike there a bracket to attach the casing. oh and the main one was
    where light fitting sites is two screws on on it top and buttom screw for the sv 650 front light and fearing. that is the main thing that holds it.
