1999 SV650S Blue 23000 miles
 

I am reluctantly selling my SV as i am moving to the USA. Its a great bike and i have a garage purely to keep it in.

The bike is in good condition, it passed its MOT no snags in May this year.

I bought the bike May 2005, at which time 2 new tyres were put on it, they are still in good shape. I fitted new chain and sprockets in Feburary this year, alongside this i am running a Scottoiler. The drivetrain is in very good condition.

the only fault i have had on the bike is the regulator/rectifier which 'expired' last winter. This led to fitment of a new one and a new battery.

I fitted new brake pads to the front in April, which work well... they are Carbone Lorraine pads.

I am in Preston, if your nearby, feel free come and look at it.

I would be looking for £2000. With that being the price to sell at... not less :D

Sorry mate, I think you will struggle to get £2k

oh well..... :(

obviously not due to the lack of response!!!!

what is a good figure for it???

Thing is i paid £3300 18 months ago... which i thought was fair then!

I will be open to take market value. 8)

i would expect to pay no more than £1500 sorry

might help to post some picys? or try ebay but make sure you put a reserve

good luck with the sale anyway

If you can hold on until spring you'll make a bit more. Winter is a buyer's market.

you're definately not helping!!! :(

I gotta say though.... i have looked on BikeTrader and i dont think 2 grand is way OTT.

The cheapest one on there within 40 miles is £1500... I can hardly aim to take the cheapest price now can i???

Similar bikes at around 1800 - 2000 quid... so why not try for the cash, its been garaged. 8)

I agree, i may have paid over the odds, i dont expect the buyer to take the hit for that though!!! I bought it from Suzuki see, to ensure it was in good nick.

Sounds like you got a bargain mate!!! £2900 for a 2 year old SV!!! lucky git!!! :D

just seen milage so i edited milage question:opps:

the bike is mint, you might be lucky
any picys?

i only paid £1600....2 months ago for a minter(lots of extras) 13000 miles :shock:

i re-enter the forum quite embarrassed :oops:

I just looked through my papers and i have a receipt for £2455 !!!! which is actually £2390 + tax (i think) don't know where i got the number extra £1000 from!!! :roll:

i guess, 18 months later and getting on for 10,000 miles, i should expect depreciation to take the price down to £1500 or so...

This doesn't change much, because i was only gonna ask market value... so anybody???

just make an offer, disregarding any ridiculous number further up :P

Any pics? :D
