Default Getting rid of SV (FREE but needs TLC)

As per title,

my SV died on me (trys to tick over but doesn't start.. Think it needs new spark Plugs) and was only really bought as a starting out bike while I saved and got something better. I currently have no way of getting it anywhere to be fixed and do not have the time, tools or right weather to fix it myself.

Its free to anyone who is willing to come and collect it.

The good....

Started fine and ran pretty good until the spark plugs died. Has a brand new (about 500 mile) rear tyre (Michelin road pilot 3)

The bad...

both upper and lower fairings are scratched and cracked (Previous owner dropped it which was why I got it as figured Id drop it and wouldnt feel sad) and doesn't currently start.

Thought I'd give someone the chance to come collect it before I scrapped it. Currently living in Luton but am moving soon (which is another reason I want shot of it as will be awkward to move) Currently Taxed till July (I think) but will be cashing that in as I got a lovely letter from the DVLA telling me to SORN it or get fined.

Let me know if anyone is interested, I'll try and get some pictures this weekend.

I'll take it. I've got a van & could pick it up this weekend, weather permitting.

I will get back to you shortly, but may well know someone that is after just such a project, and should be able to collect at short notice.

A generous offer, whoever gets it should do a thread on what they did with it!

The person I have in mind would be turning it into a mini-twin, but others may have their own plans of course!
