WP 3-way shock for pointy SV650 (perhaps also for SV1000?) - SV650.org

02-01-09, 02:23 PM

Because of a planned bike change to a Triumph Daytona 675

upcoming months, I’m starting to sell some of the extra’s of my bike.

I’m selling a WP 3-way shock for the pointy SV650. It will fit the ’03 model without any modifications, but fitting it on the 04+ models (with the lower subframe) might require some small cutting in the tool storage behind the shock. This because of the reservoir.

As you can see on the photos, it’s in great shape and it has been serviced last winter. I also included some pictures of the shock on the bike, but unfortunately I don’t have any better pictures.

It’s a great modification for the SV650. Gives the bike a much more planted feeling and more feedback, without loosing comfort.

Price: 350 euros, including shipping to most European countries. If you’ve got questions, just let me know.

You can say that again! I sold my 2006 R6 yesterday to a guy from the south of Ireland for 4400 euro, damn cheap bike for the guy who bought her as 6 months ago i'd have been looking another 1500 euro. Even had a guy on the phone from slovakia trying to arange export! Anyone whos paid in euros is rubbing there paws at the minute and buying cars and bikes in the UK. Post office will give me £4360 for the 4400 euro.

Sorry...

. The current exhange rate is one of the reasons I'm looking for a Daytona 675 in UK at the moment.

Only, the North Sea is making a quick trip a bit more difficult...
