Hi all - SV650.org

09-05-07, 07:22 PM

Just wanted to say hi to everybody. I'm a noob here and a noob on the roads when it comes to my SV. Normaly I drive an 01 Subaru Impreza Spec C Type RA. However my commute is 90 miles a day and at nearly 600 quid a month on fuel. Something had to happen. So I bought the SV off my lil brother who was planning on modding it and then using it.
It's a 99 on a T plate with 18k on the clock only. Not bad for 1100 quid.

Seems it may start paying for itself in less than three months

.

Anyway so far Ive fitted an undertray, solo cowl, pyramid hugger, Art can (sounds like the scoob

never a bad thing) LED indicators and some uprated headlight bulbs. I have the lower fairings in the paint shop right now, once these are done I have a double bubble irridium screen to fit. That should do it for now.

Can't get enough of buying toys and fitting them.
The scoobs going to feel neglected I feel

I'm still waiting on a few bits like chain gaurd and a new front tyre. I'm hoping to get in for MOT next week and be riding it the following week.

I'll post up some pics in a bit.

Hi there, sounds like you've done more to your bike in a few days than I've done in almost 2 years!

PS fellow scooby owner.
