    2008 SV650SF set up for 190 to 250 lb rider

    I purchased this bike a year ago to use as a fun and track bike that was suitable for large humans. In the meantime my left knee lost some range of motion so this season I found it difficult to ride very long and eventully had to lower the pegs (now back to stock). I plan to buy something a little larger and with more knee room and have been riding my V-Strom instead.

    I'm looking at some new bikes to replace it and they are offering a decent trade-in if I put it back to stock. So I'll offer it one more time as-is, but I'm pretty firm on the price. Title in hand. Always kept in my walk-in basement or under cover.

    2008 SV650SF [S with lower fairing]
    2,400 miles or so: still ride it now and again
    Factory frame sliders
    Exotech tail tidy
    Pirelli Diablo Corso tires with about 1,000 miles on them
    Racetech cartridge emulators with heavier springs set up by GMD Computrack
    Two way Penske rear shock with external reservoir set up by GMD Computrack
    Passenger seat cover and stock passenger seat. Seat cover has some scratches.
    Techspec Snakeskin tank pads
    There is one scratch on the top front of the fuel tank: rest of the bike is pretty much mint.

    Not interested in trades or any part outs.

    Can be seen in Boston by appointment. $4,600. Please PM if interested.

    This is a great bike. Uncommon color for the SV too, sharp looking and setup to fly.

    GLWS Dana.

    If you trade it in I'll probably be picking it up from Riverside when I trade in the Hyper lol. Wish I could buy it outright in cash, but finances will not allow it (aka the wife).

    Lou- you probably wouldnt know how to start that bike since it requires something called a "key"........
