New bike! Guess what... It's an SV. - SV650.org

Myself and Davies are now joint owners of "thing" our shared SV which will be our trackbike.

It needs a few bits and bobs (engine change or cylinder head change) to get it on the road so we are going to track it right up at the same time.

We both started on SVs and are proud to be back in the biggest clan of SVers this side of er... somewhere. It brings a tear to both of our respective eyes.

Yippee!

Lightweights.

Trés bien Monsieur Squid.

We nearly have one and a half actually so there

We've got four motors - and only a mere three of them are broken.

In that case we accept your gift of a motor if ours breaks.

Thanks!

I'd love to but ultimately is it worth posting more pics of another blue curvy? (I'm down the pub too and we didn't take any).

We sort of called it thing because it just came out. It's actually pretty good (if a curvy!).

Bought from Hallasv recently advertised on here. If it's a wrongen I have his details and I know people

I thought I'd get started on stripping the bike befoe we decide what to flog and to repair/upgrade certain parts.
