Default Written off SV to turn into a stunt bike

Hi guys,

Been a while since I was last on here. Progressed up through the ranks of biking a bit but still recommend the wee SV to anyone.
Anyway I'm looking for a crashed, unloved straight ish bike. Looking to turn it in to a stunt bike for playing on a bit of private land. Obviously cosmetics is not an issue neither is road gear but a good motor and straight frame would be a winner but I'll consider anything.
If anyone has anything laying around please contact me directly through email sjhorne01@aol.com as I'm rarely on here.

Thanks SVers!

You will have to consider modifing the oil pick up because as they are from the factory the oil pick up does not pick up when you are wheeling and so the front cylinder gets starved of oil. Just in case you didn't know!

Ha ha I'll be sure to relocate the pick up somehow. I'm sure it's been done before. I think the wee SV could be a cracking stunt bike with a big sprocket and protection. Its light enough to through about rather than a older cbr although they are bullet proof. Forks and brakes maybe be the next weak link but I'll cowboy up something to fit.
It wont be pretty but it'll be a good laugh

Will do, this will maybe take a bit of time for the right box of spares to come up!
