Default Anyone recognise RX54 KBK before I buy

Not had an SV for a long time and was after a cheap bike to fix up or maybe make a track tramp out of.

Saw this bike and when I did a dvla check on the plate it comes up as a DR650.

Anyone definite this bike?

It didn't have any keys. Is it as simple as getting a key cut or buying an ignition and fuel cap?
Is the ignition paired with the ECU?

Anyway the plate is RX54 KBK



Thanks in advance
Graham

If it comes up as a DR 650 - could have been stolen/ringed, have you seen the bike in person? Check the frame numbers etc

The lack of keys and the coming up as a DR650 does suggest it's been nicked ...

Sounds like it should be avoided...

Not just avoid, let the police know. Someone might get their pride and joy back.

I second that. It does seem very dodgy

Where did you go to look it up as a DR? I've found it as an SV.

Do you have a vin number?

I put the reg number into Autotrader as if I was selling the bike and it comes up as a DR
