The other week a man followed me home to ask about the SV, he asked if I knew any body locally who was selling one. He wasn't going to be allowed to shop for one but if one was presented to him he could maybe convince the misses it was too good a chance to miss out on.
So if you are selling or know someone then pls reply on here so I can forward details of the bike. Ill let him know this info and then if he's interested I'll PM you his mobile number.

sounds a bit dodgy to me, I'd be very suspicious if some strange bloke followed me home, to ask about an SV....specially if 'he wasn't allowed to shop for one'
Lock yer bike up well, and watch out for anyone wearing dodgy looking fake beards ;-)

Loll,
I had the same suspision, the phone number is correct at least I checked it while he was here.
I think it was the oportunity to ask someone I was under the impression that as I turned off the main road onto my road an he just thought.. why not.
He was there while I locked it up, disk lock, chain and ground anchor so hopefully he saw it wouldnt be worth his while if that was indeed his intention.
Yeah ive noticed (suprisingly) that there are many beards about, is this a "in honour of" thing or a silly thing?

Or now he knows how to get to it ;)

It's a silly thing AFAIK. I think it was Adam (muffles) who drew one on ThEGr33k's avatar to make him look a tad older (looks about 12 ya see :p)

Phone numbers are easy to fake, and very convincing if you want to scam someone. Even a number that forwards to another mobile.
I'd be very very careful about the bike, as dizzy, this whole thing just seems wrong. You've just told him what tools he'll need to come "present an SV650" to himself IMO.
I could be wrong (hopefully!!), but if someone followed me home to ask about buying an SV, I'd be tempted to offer them kevlar covered knuckles. Fine, approach me at a random place, but follow me home?!?! No way!
