My new bike - SV650S

[LankyPaddy]

Collected yesterday: 2008 '08 SV650SK8

Immaculate condition and with all the extras I'd want to add:
- R&G crash bungs, Tail tidy, Screen, Delkevic Ti exhaust, Rear hugger and front fender extender, and a Scottoiler

Done just under 7500 miles and a brand new (<200 miles) set of Avons.

Well chuffed

I like it, like those shape SV's, only ridden the thousand but it's a TL engine so i'm a fan (don't really like any other V-twins).

Nice colour too.

I really like these bikes and i'd love one but i have a problem with one thing. it's one of those bikes that looks faster than it is. Saying that it'd be an improvement on my 600 diversion anyway.

Its a very nice bike but i'd be tempted to shorten the zorst slightly, maybe even cut out the blue part.

The exhaust doesn't look quite as strange as it does in real life. I think I can shorten the link pipe buy a couple of inches which will probably help.

The exhaust is the 450mm model, they also do a 350mm which I think would have looked much better, but meh I'm not complaining.

Regarding the colour, did they only do grey for 1 year? I like it, makes a change from the standard candy blue

I like 'em too.
I have the oppurtunity to go out and play on an sv1000, but im a bit hesitant because i think i might like it too much...

It looks very nice. These bikes look so much better fully faired.
