So, if I were to sell the SV.

.... how much do you guys reckon I'd get for it? Not sure I want to really.

I'm trying to keep a sensible head, but with all the mods I dunno really.

It's been pretty reliable, in fact the only thing I remember that's failed is the dreaded Reg/Rec - now has a CBR one.


Specs: 'V' Reg 1999, SV650S, 30K miles

Slight alterations to factory spec:
Candy Red powdercoated wheels
Pointy f/wheel+discs
Ohlins forksprings w/ preload adjusters
Hel braided lines
Acewell LCD clocks
Fiamm HORN!!!!!
Renthal Dragbars
Stacked Headlights
Harris rearsets
GSXR Alloy torque arm
Yoshi stubby can, jetted to suit
ZX636 Shock w/jack-up dogbones
Modified tail lifted 2" plus checkerplate undertray
LED stop+tail lights
Faired-in LED rear indys (not done in the pics)
Brushguards (not in pics)


Or I could just put a pic up, eh....





So how many fine British Pounds d'ya reckon?

dunno I've known some people to get a good price and others have not right now. My friends in the trade and he says the bottom has fallen out of the market. S'pose its luck of the draw right now

You have two things against you I reckon Haggis. Your location, and the fact that it would appeal to a very limited market. If all things were fair then it should be worth a couple of grand, but sadly I suspect you may get nearer half that.

Hope I'm wildly wrong.

in todays market mate you'd be looking at grand-there's ones going on ebay at the moment with less than half your mileage, some even under 10,000 for 1300-1400, and that's them in central England

That looks nice mate...

Agreed, location is always a problem living here - buying or selling. The only plus side to that is the fantastic ride home!

My own guess was around the £1200 mark, but I may wait til the season picks up a bit.

It's a buyers market right now tho and everything I've seen to replace it is at rock bottom prices. It's so tempting.

The thing with your bike haggis is you've made it a belter and personalised it-good luck with it mate, its very tempting to take these great new bike offers at the moment

Wow a curvy i actually like the look of. It's nice!
The milage isn't great, i would expect to see it fo for around £1300. But the extras could bring it up to £1400.

I'm going to assume you modded it yourself, and more than likely spent a fair bit of money on it. It would probably be better you keep it as it's a neat bike and you would only be making a huge loss selling it.

Unfortunately, extras add nothing to value.

As I always say, return it to as far near as standard as possible and sell the extras, but that would be a shame.

I'm in a similar position (although not nearly so modded or so nice) but returning to std is going to break your heart all that hard work .

Haggis if you already accept £1200 I don't think you will be disappointed, but with your location it might take a while?
Hope you get lucky & find someone that will appreciate it & pay more for the work.
