There's some truly nasty things on that bike. However, they're not easy truly nasty things (coloured fork bottoms and top yoke) which suggests that there may be other goodness lurking in them thar forks. There's a logo on 'em which might be Maxton?

Tank bags cover dents, bikes that have been taken to bits and been powder coated and polished, often needed a strip down to re-build after a crash. I'd look at it very, very carefully.

Is that not quite a good price as some people want almost that much for an SV of that age.
I'm not the best to comment on the paint, but I personally wouldn't want it unless it was the RR model (not out then???)

You're right...no rr model then. The paintjob I would de-chav it. Its a great price though...makes me wonder.

I think in the bikes in question it is the overuse of the anodised bolt ons that make them look a bit chavyy, I think if your gonna spend a wedge of cash on a bike get one near standard and if you want to add any mods, then you can do so yourself and they will be to your taste, not the previous owners.
