My engine siezed on my sv recently and i want to sell all the parts, the whole bike for £600 ono. I've taken the engine out and stripped it down but have ultimately decided against fixing it or putting a new engine in.
The problem with the engine is that one of the bearings between the con rod and the crankshaft is broken for sure but I havent actually removed the crank and bearings to see if there's any further damage.
The rest of the frame, fairing panels, everything else is completely intact, so for £600 you'll still get a lot of bike for repairs/spares or to put an engine in and sell/keep. If you put another engine in or fix the current engine (16000 miles) then I reckon you'd sell the bike for £1500 - £2000 easily, the only reason i'm not doing this myself is because I don't have the tools, time or money at the moment!
If you wish to give me a shout about it you can ring me on 07702492666, obviously you'll need to collect the bike with a van or trailer, I live in sheffield.
Like I say give me a ring if you're interested and I can let you know more details.
There's and art can with the bike, as well as the original, i've got a spare wing mirror and some spare indicators, a spare rhs fairing panel plus some other bits.
I've rejetted the carbs and done an airbox mod on the airbox that's in the bike, it's got braided hoses and various other tweaks so it wouldn't make a bad track day beast either.
