650

Morning
I've been wanting a Daytona for ages now and I've found one locally I'm in love with, so seeing what interest I can muster for my trusty steed!
Ok so the bike:
05 SK5 (black frame) sv650s with part fairing
just shy of 12k on the clock - part service history (done most bits myself, details below)
Beowulf exhaust with baffle out atm but baffle included (sounds nice)
R&G tail tidy
Rear seat cowl (doesn't have the infills though....)
Bit of red rim tape to break up the black wheels a bit!
Front indicators removed and wing mirrors with them built in added
Both front and rear tyres are Pirelli Diablo's with buckets of tread
Very nice and clean (I'm a bit obsessive about having spotless vehicles!)
Recently I've:
Had the alarm removed as it was ****, so no worries there
Brand new Yuasa battery
Changed the oil for semi synth Castrol...I forget the precise brand but it was £38ish for the 4L tub (which you can take the remainder with you) also changed the oil filter
Completely rebuilt the front and rear calipers, the EBC pads front and rear are HH sintered and near new. Obviously bled the system as well.
Discs are near new as well
Changed fork oil for slightly thicker stuff to stiffen the front end up
It gets more comments than anything else I've ever owned, probably because it sounds like the apocalypse when I'm riding down the street and stop at lights!
Here's some pics, these are VERY recent!
