Well I joined the Forum a few years ago when I was considering buying meself an SV. I changed my mind in the end but I recently bought one anyway...a SV650n curvy.
11500 miles and in very good condition. The forks are too soft even for my old man style of riding so new K-Tech springs are on the way. New tyres fitted this week and I've started giving it a service. Here's some pics. I've already changed the bars to something more upright. The drag bars were too low and narrow for me... ![]() ![]() I went off 4 pots years ago after discovering twins and I'm liking this engine a lot. Compared to my Virago it feels very refined. Nice nice. I'm using the search function but might feel the need to ask if I'm stuck on anything. Cheers. ![]()

Thanks for the welcome.
Yeah black's good on any bike I reckon. Went to change brake pads and spotted some interestingly shaped dust seals and plenty white crusty stuff so new seals in the post, along with a plug spanner which is missing from the tool kit and my deep sockets don't fit in the heads.
