Classic SV650?
 

Do you guys think the SV will ever be desirable as a classic?

In 30-40 years time (if there is any petrol) do you think we will be hunting out barn-stored SVs to restore to try and relive our lost youth?

do you think they said that about the Ford Anglia / Morris Marina? Back in the day...

...it'll rust away to nothing? ...

Doubt it, isn't iconic at all is it really.

It will be an icon like the 350 LC :!:

I think it is a bit iconic!

In fairness... I think the original curvey is a bit Iconic. Might be cause I own one... :wink: nah, I think so. Seriously, why would it not be?
Because its not Italien?

Nah. Its a cult classic at the very least. :P

I've got a 2000 classic motorcycle mechanics mag and they reckoned back then it'd be a future classic. Just lose the purple anodised bits...

Its europes best selling bike is it not?

I dare say it will be hailed as a future classic but you'll be hard pressed to find a mint one that isnt brwon and furry :lol:

I agree with Halonic. It's such a popular bike, with unique attributes (good and quirky) that I'm pretty sure in 20 years time I would want one... well I'm planning to keep mine but you know what I mean!
