Moving on from my SV650 - SV650.org

Yo guy's and gal's

Just thought I would let you all know that I'm trading in my SV650 curvy this afternoon for a Honda CB 750.

Got sick of taking off the lowers to check the oil level and also I'v been having trouble with the bike since I got it so decided for the change.

I was enquiring about changing mine to a naked but too much time and money would have to be spent.

I'm hoping I can stay in touch with you guy's if you will let me

even come on some ride outs too.

Cheers Rob.

HEY, just because you change your bike doesn't mean your not welcome.....

...oh hang on a minute HONDA...bugger orf and hang your head in shame

Only thing is..I knew who it was on the SV

But I don't blame you the amount of hiccups you had with it

I presume it a F2 version, robust competent bike, I used one on the AR07, although it's a little charactorless in comparison to the SV, but more relaxed.

Cheers Mark.

Well I will post a piccy up of the bike when I get it.
I'v had far too much trouble with that SV so just got it all sorted and decided to get rid.
Advice to everyone. If you see a Red Bull fully faired curvy for sale don't buy it lol

Yeah thats the bike.
Just with a silver engine and burgandy in colour.

I'v always liked naked bikes more anyway just I needed a bike to get me by after I came off my bandit.

rictus01 · 20-04-09, 12:19 PM

well the CB750f2 was Honda's take on the bandit, only it cost more and was better made, mine started first time after 6 years under a cover in my front garden and done a 700 mile weekend as I said robust, a very useable bike, hope you get on with it.

Cheers Mark.

Good luck with the new bike! I rode one of the old CB750s quite a bit back and your version will be a million miles better I can guarantee it

You do know the burgundy ones look pink in the sun

20-04-09, 01:16 PM

Yeah that's why I bought it lol. It won't look pink when I'v finished with it lol
I'm hoping it runs and runs and runs anyway.

It should be a good 'un then

I don't think they break, ever, even when you want them too. Perfect

Look forward to seeing you out again mate!
