Anyone have Heli-Bars for their 2nd Generation SV650S?

I don't have them, but my friend, Cliff, has them on his SV and loves them. Says they're well worth the money.

I have it on my '07 Busa and I can ride it 14-15 hours a day. It's amazing how much difference it can make. This picture will tell you. A little over 17 months and with these many miles.

did you put them on yourself or did you have them installed?

If you did them, how difficult were they to put on?

Sorry, I tend to do lots of research when I spend money these days

well, just went to order them and got a call within 5 minutes saying that they just filled the last order for SV's and they're on backorder for a month of more (they were really nice on the phone though, kudos to them for letting me know - extra points for customer service). Any other suggestions? I want to have more comfortable bars on there before the summer is half way over. I'd prefer not to do a handlebar conversion (would rather stay with clipons).

see if anyone is selling used on svrider.com or ebay

No dice. Looks like a handlebar conversion is in my future. I love my bike and want to be able to go farther without having to pick up another bike (just no room for of right now). I'll probably order sometime over the next couple of days. Eventually I'll want to throw some adjustable rearsets on... Not sure where to even start there
