It might be cheap, great value even, but it doesn't have any wheels, handle bars, forks or many other crucial parts ;)

Thanks though.

Re: wanted - sv project

No worries something will turn up for you chap :-)

Re: wanted - sv project

It is an excellent project though, just not for me. I've more chance of turning that into a coffee table than a motorcycle. GLWS

Re: wanted - sv project

I have a curvy I was going to make into a track bike. Looking into costs of track days/transport/tyres/fuel etc I just don't have the money for it for the next 18 months or so.
At the minute it's engine in frame with swingarm and shock attached. Full loom in place.
Wheels, rear sprocket carrier, brake calipers with braided lines, clip ons, switch gear, tank, air box, carbs, radiator blah blah blah all removed and boxed up.

Recently serviced forks, alloy front sub frame, race rear sets, r6 throttle, alloy exhaust hanger, zx6 fully adjustable rear shock, GSXR 750 race fairing including screen and tail unit and modified rear subframe to take GSXR seat unit all bought and ready to fit.
I also have a spare set of carbs.

V5 in my name. Could easy go back on the road. Good winter project. Engine was running perfectly before it was stripped down. All it needs parts wise is an end can and new battery.

The bits I have bought for it cost me over £400 so I think £750 or very close is a good price for a quick sale for the whole lot.

You know it's funny you say that, I've been on the hunt for a cheap blown engine to use as the base for a coffee table. I joked about it with the missus and she actually thought it sounded cool :D

Re: wanted - sv project

I could probably help you with that, I have enough of them...

Re: wanted - sv project

Andy, i had a real drama trying to email you the pictures so have put them on my post in the for sale section.
I have emailed you the list of bits.

cheers

Re: wanted - sv project

Thank you all for your input on this but due to a change of circumstances this is going to have to wait.
