1999 SV650 Unfaired.
MOT until 06/15. No advisories.
Tax until 03/15
16500 miles.

I have had the bike for 3 years, using it almost daily during the nicer months of the year, and garaging it up over the winter months.

General maintenance carried out by myself during this time.

-Oil and filter change 1 month ago.
-Spark plugs changed 1 month ago.
-Brand new battery 3 months ago.
-K&N air filter cleaned and re-oiled 1 month ago

It's been a fantastic bike, and has never let me down. Starts on the button and runs sweetly.
Plenty of tread left on both tyres.
Chain/sprocket regularly lubricated.

Selling as I am planning to upgrade to a Street Triple.

Extras include:
-Renthal bars.
-Screen
-Belly pan
-Rear hugger
-Mudguard extender
-Radiator cover

I also have a set of blue Oxford Sport soft panniers I will throw in.


Bodywork is very good for age, there are a number of marks here and there, from general wear and tear over the last 15 years. Mainly just surface scratches
Some age-related pitting on swingarm and forks. Nothing more than one would expect after 15 years.
Tank is clean and free from any dents or rust.

The only major scratch is on the front mudguard, approximately 6cm long by 1cm wide. It has gone through the paint to the black plastic underneath.
The white background to the rev counter is also starting to peel away (behind the glass)

Sadly I have no previous service history for the bike, as none was provided by the previous owner. It would probably benefit from a carb clean/balance as I cannot vouch for when it was last done.

Up for sale elsewhere, but happy to let it go for less to an Orger.

£1200 or nearest offer.

Thanks for looking

To what?...

The mrs has an sv650s and she ain't liking the riding position so we're looking for an N.... Your bike could be just the donkeys.......

Do you have the standard 'bars as well as the Renthals?....

I don't have the standards, the renthals were on when I got it. As far as I can tell, the rise and sweep is pretty much the same

My friend won't be up for this I'm afraid, he's a complete pussy and has backed off bikes due to failing his mod 2 about three million times. GLWTS :)
