Zach, following on from our little chat in the other thread....have you looked on autotrader bikes section? I had a quick glance and there are lots of good examples on there within 100 miles. :-)

edit: Can't see any fully faired black ones :-(

i have had a quick look,

i dont know if i can buy an unfaired one and buy the lower fairing at a reasonable price and add it on or whether i just have to buy a complete one

thanks people.

just notice a 2005 sv just sold for like £2500 in classifieds on here, thats seems a lot cheaper than other older bikes are going for, is that because the other are advertised too expensive?

Thats sounds about the right sort of price to me really, I bought my 54 plate in August for £2400

and Hello and Welcome!

Hallo Zach and welcome along from another relative newbie. Nice CBR by the way!

cheers guys,

and i loved the cbr, was nice bike, very comfy/reliable/nippy, just fancy a change, and hearing my mates sv makes me want one! plus im after something that isnt stupidly fast, my cbr was more then enough for me, also comfy, not too heavy, and looks awesome,

i think i have chosen wisely :)
