I was wondering if you guys and gals could give me some advice.
i am relatively new to biking passed my test november last year. I bought an 97 xj 600 divvie from ebay and it has been a complete headache so decided not too spend any more money on it and buy another bike with lower mileage and less problems. I told this to a guy at work who said his friend has a sv650 in his garage that he wants to sell, the owner has left it in his friends garage for 5 years it is a 2001 model and has done 2000 miles it does run, he rides it to work now and then ,it has a long mot. Im going to see it in a week or so but after my first bike and its problems, im wondering after it being sitting mostly for 5 years weather there are any major problems i may encounter if i were to buy it oh yer he or the owner is asking for 1150 pounds is it worth it?
cheers in advance!
