Default Just passed and looking to buy an SV650s

as per title really passed my test this morning so im chuffed to bits!!! its on a restricted licence as im only 19 but on my way home i popped into a bike shop and found a nice suzuki sv650 sitting there for £1700 on a W plate, looks clean and ran fine but looking at other ads it seems very cheap??

anyway if anyone can give me advice on it that would be great!!!

Ash

Ill put it into contect for you. I picked up my completely immaculate sv650s, 14000 miles, full m4 system, full service history, decent alarm system - £700 just last weekend.

Buying from dealers is easier yeah, and you get a warranty... but buying private *especially this time of year* has its benefits just look around and dont buy the first one you see... unless its one like mine

here is the blurb from the dealers site
Quote:
Manual 6 speed, 33,610 miles, Metallic RED, MOT-09-2009. This is a very nice clean example of the very popular SUZUKI SV650S, This is in the most popular colour, which is red. The bike has been very well looked after, and is very clean and tidy for its age. It has been fitted with a after market end can, which is a HI LEVEL Blue Flame exhaust, which sound absolutely fantastic. The bike also has a very nice carbon belly pan, and has been fitted with crash protectors. These really are good bikes, they have a V Twin engine, which gives very good low down power, and is ideal as a first big bike, they have a nice low seat height, so are good for the shorter rider. This one really is a nice clean bike and has to be seen to be appretiated. Check out our website, as we have a larger selection on there. We stock over 30 bikes, and they range from scooters to sports bikes, 50cc to 1300cc. All of our bikes come with an MOT and warranty. We accept all major debit and credit cards, and can arrange finance if required. We are happy to take your bike in part exchange, and all bikes come with a HPI check form. £1,695
and a few pics





might try and get him to wack in a re-stricter for the price aswell and my god it sounds good

@vilguy - its actually the cheapest example locally ive found even after looking on autotrader and the bay for the last 2 weeks!

also i dont know how many miles is alot for bikes and how to i check that the chain etc is in good condition??

Yeah looks clean, sensible mods but it's pricey.
