For Sale. My fantastic Suzuki SV650S K3 (SOLD)
15,700 miles, very good condition and well looked after. Extras include Fuel exhaust (plus the original if you want it), Single Seat cowl (plus original rear seat), GiPro gear indicator, Stomp Grips, Crash Bars, Stebel Nautilus horn (VERY loud), Hamicad Tail Tidy plus original snow scoop, Oxford heated handle bars (wired into the ignition circuit so they cannot be accidentally left on), Fender extender, rear view Mirror extension bars, Xenon bulbs in the offside main and side lights (plus a spare set), Scotoiler, Alphadot security markings (with security registration paperwork) and I'll throw in the medium sized Bike Cover as well. It also has a new rear tyre that was put on about 1000 miles ago.

The bike has some very small scratches on the left rear seat cowl (when I laid it down on the drive having not put the side stand down properly), and the radiator is slightly bent on the left hand side, although it does not effect the temperature of the bike and cannot be seen behind the radiator guard. There is also a very small amount of paint peeling on the front forks. If you want me to take some pictures of the offending items then please let me know. Other than these minor issues the bike is in really good condition and has only ever been run in the Summer and almost entirely rain free. The bike is stored in the garage over the winter and is currently SORN but I will put 6 months of tax on the bike prior to purchase.

There is a limited service history but all the paperwork including MOTs and services from the last 3 years when I bought the bike will be provided. If you have any questions then please let me know via a PM. This bike is also listed on ebay if you want to see more pictures.

I have started the bidding at £1500 but there is a reserve on the bike. If you are interested then please PM me with an offer and we can discuss it.

Test rides can be arranged as long as finances and insurance are covered. I will accept cash on collection, or if paying by cheque or bankers draft then the money must clear before I will let the bike go. Sorry, but I am sure you will understand.

This is a perfect 1st big bike for a new rider, but it is equally at home on long rides, commuting or on the twisty's of Scotland.

I will be really sorry to see this bike go as I have had some really good times on it, but I am now ready to move up to something a bit bigger and it is with regret that I must let it go. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

More pictures added on the eBay ad, confirming the mileage and showing the GiPro and the mirror extenders.

3 days left if any one is interested. I would much rather sell to an 'orger' than on eBay so PM me if you have any questions and we can discuss the price.

Thanks.

Hi.

Just reduced the minimum bid to £1300 to try and encourage bidding. Can't believe no-one is intertested.

Any ideas?

possibly being almost 500 miles north of Birmingham may limit your market a little?

Bit early for the Spring biking brigade

Price is good too, I wouldn't reduce it

Stick it on you local Gumtree ads, if it doesn't sell.

Starsky. Good point but some things are worth travelling for.

Maviczap. Thanks for the comment. Looking to get an R1150 RT and I need to sell the SV to help pay for that. Guess I might have to wait for the Spring Brigade to get warmed up a bit. Thanks also for the gen on Gumtree. I'll give it a go.

All the best.

Guys

The eBay auction failed to reach my reserve so the bike is still for sale. I am considering relishing it, although I do have one Orger who has expressed an interest in the bike.

However, if you think you might be interested or have any questions, please get in touch.

Now looking for £1800 but without the Stebel horn, GiPro, Seat Cowl, Tail Tidy, mirror extenders and the Haynes manual/servicing CD.

These are all available seperately on the forum, as well as on eBay. The bike will also be going on eBay this weekend so I will post the new site once I have sorted it out.

Please PM if you are interested.
