looks OK to me.

Its blue (good), curvey (good) and we'll forgive you that its not naked

Anyway, nice work geeting an SV so soon mate and it looks like the previous owner has done esential things like the fender extenda but left you room to do the bling like a new can.
Soho's a great place to sound test loads of different cans so make sure you wait till you've done your research before rushing off to buy one wont ya.

OK the photos aren't that good. It is GCB and in pretty good nick for its year.

The forks need sorting and the brakes are just shocking!!!!

The rear hasn't been raised.

A few dents and sctratches, need to change the riders seat to a standard one and give it a good service.

But all in all a good buy for £1200 (Trade) Mike beat him down from £1299.

Well spotted by me!!
