Default Going to see this bike tomorrow

Well guys, I finally got through a cheque from my insurance company (a very good settlement figure too Sveeedy ) and I am going to Glasgow tomorrow to see this SV.

It was posted on here a while back by Generallee and he kindly sent me these pics today. It is an 04 reg and is fitted with Skidmarx lowers and and Art can and it looks like it's in very good condition.

Tell me what you think







Ain't she a beauty?

She looks very nice mate

Those lowers are interesting but not bad, the snow shovel on the back needs to go, get a new fender elimnater for it

Glad your getting back on two wheel and sv wheels at that

Obviously its stunning, because its an SV & its silver

However, I don't think the lowers match the bikini fairing... Its crying out for a Hamicad fender eliminator

On the up side, its already got a can (albeit an ART - Don't like ART, but thats personal )

Go for it if the price is right

Yeah, I did think about an IL4 (ZX6R/GSXR6) but for the money I have to spend I think the SV's are great value.

i would say it been down on the left, dropped perhaps

i can see a mark on the last pic to the rear cowling, & it has new bar ends, but of course it could be the pic or i am very wrong

The marks could be from panniers ?? looks too far back to have been from a drop....

Though.. if you want to eliminate any worries of it dropped, look at the back of the radiator on the left side, if it goes down on the left, then the rad hits the floor as well, so it ends up getting bent up against the No1 cylinder.. and at £300 a pop, its not one of those items thats just changed!
