SV650S K9 Sport, SOLD,

heyho (II)
.. hmm. yes. I guess 4450 is a little high
I'll be dropping it to £4150. 'hope that helps

I had another "vehicle matching company" ringing today. I assume you all know them - HOW can they be allowed operating such a business in a civiliced country like this F##kin el IF I could grab hold of one of them

I guess the best way of stopping them is to pretend you're very interested and waste As Much of their time as possible: Battery running out on the phone "ring back..", detailed anal questions about "when and how", wrong card details, make several canges to make and model, etc etc until the guy after 2 hours is Steamin'. Then you tell him to go and F## himself. haha. I'll def. do that the next time they ring.

I managed to upset myself now, so i'll go and have a whisky and a cigarette
have a good sunday guys

Sorry mate but I don't think that's generally how it works. Not many people pay anywhere near list price for new bikes. The only thing selling at list price at the mo is probably the 09 R1 as they are new and desirable. Walk in to George Whites and you can get a ZX-6R with extras for £5500 on finance.... similarly, negotiation will get you a new GSX-R600 for under £6k.

Yours looks like a very nice bike but you can get a new SV650 sport for around £4k so even with the extras that's about all you're looking at for second hand, even then people will probably want some discount off the new price. Good luck with the sale though

I have £3500 cash here if your willing to let it go?

heyho guys,
yeah - sally and carty were right..

I just parted with my sv last week. £3700. So there we go - im working on my 04 harley softail for the moment - hoping to join the queue soon (haha - its not quite as narrow as a sv..)

For the record - i guess you can get 3800-4000 for a k9 sv650s sport with alarm/exhaust/hugger if you got a little more time. I was just too broke- and was facing the end of the summer+a service, new tires etc - so decided to go slightly lower just to get it done....

I took off the inforad M1 bytheway, so if anyone wants it..?

..i'll post a new topic on this in a sec

thanks to everyone for your advice and kind words.

SV on!


best
