Blue and white with 11104 miles, tail tidy, led indys, seat pod, iridium screen, crash mushrooms, braided lines, data tool alarm and m.o.t till april. think i may have a look tomorra, What do the .org reckon, seem like a good idea or over priced etc? and what to look out for?

For a CAT D its around 500 overpriced.

You can pick up a K8 with similar miles for 3500

Cheers for that, dont really know what to think, i dont really want to get rid of the sv, and it would be an extra 350 on insurance for gixxer, but i was thinking that if one of the best mods for the sv is gsxr front end and rear shock then it would be easier in a way to just buy a gsxr so long as its for the right price i supose.. dont know what to think, should keep the sv really and get another years riding under the belt but something tells me to be a bit daft and get sumthing else.
