So I'm selling my SV to fund a project.
It's a 2001 model (X reg), in matt black. Paint needs a touch up, as can be seen by the white bits on the tank (whre the tankbag has rubbed off the top layer of paint). Colour change was notified with the DVLA, so the V5 is correct (Previously it was the darker of the 2 yellows the earlier models came in).
2 previous keepers (Even have old V5's to prove this). First was a local chap who had it from new for 7 months, then my brother had it from August 2001 to June 2007)
Now, when I bought it back in 2007, the then owner was my older brother . Unfortunately, the tank had developed a leak, so I sourced a black tank from eBay to replace it. Fed up of running around with it looking like a bumblebee, the paint cans came out!
Available with the bike are MOT's dating back to 2004, and also accompanying tax discs (Sad, I know).
There is an early service history with the bike, but once my brother got it, and then I after him, it was serviced by our fair hands.
It's had annual oil and filter changes under my ownership, which is now just over 6 years ago (24/06/2007).
It had a valve check back then and was all well. It still sounds good now, but I would probably give it another just to check.
Carb balance was done when it was setup on the dyno in 2009 by Chris at Road & Track in Aylesbury (sadly now gone, but ask the guys from round this way and they'll tell you he was "the ****"). It could also benefit from this in the near future.
Alas, I don't have the tools to do this particular job though. It did put out 72.84bhp though. 8-)
Taxed till December 2013
MOT with no advisories, till July 2014
Current Mileage is 28,632. This may increase slightly until it's sold.
Tyres: Front has 1-2mm and Rear has 3-4mm. Running Michelin Pilot Sports
I'm looking for £1000 or very nearest offer.
