Default Nice bike in Saltire, Edinburgh

07 plate black SV650 Sport
  • Lowers
  • Seat cowl
  • Hugger
  • High level remus pipe
  • £3895 screen price, but I bet that's got some "discount" to come off it
  • Can't remember the snow shovel spoiling it so it might have had a tail tidy, not sure.
  • No idea of mileage, but 07, can't be that much.
Twas a nice bike, caught my eye and made me walk over and have a look anyway.

Thats the very one! Knew I hadn't seen a snow shovel. With all the essential mods already done for you too. I'd rather buy that than a new one for £4K. How come you ended having a photo of it then? Or did you pop along for a look since my post?

Tempted OYB are we

Once the bug has bitten you cant stay off two wheels for that long! No point fighting it!

Those wounds of yours will heal and wouldn't it be nice to have that waiting for you in the garage....

I popped onto thier website after your post to have a little nosey. We are always tempted, but funds wouldn't allow me near it as I have to run a cage now on a student budget (keeps me warm and dry). I have no garage, Plus the parents and sisters may have a thing or 2 to say if they even knew I was on the saltire website, lol.

Would be a good 21st bday present though lol (15th of march people, haha)

It's ALMOST a stealth bike.... just those hangers, engine covers and forks. Nice dark screen would be cool, as would flashy black pazzo levers.

I like the general look of that can, but isn't the angle just a LITTLE bit out to the eye? I still prefer to see the rear indicator though - boring old fart (alive but boring!).
