New bike

[wookie]

Got a new twin....just picked up a 2000 SV. It has everything I was looking for..suspension work/SS lines/pipe/etc. (and some nice to have, clip ons, rearsets, etc). I can't wait to play with it.

I attached a pic from the for sale posting, but it looks even better in person (really, when I saw it in person I couldn't believe how nice it is).

So the idea was to pick up a beater SV for street and race duty, but this thing is too nice to race.

Daniel? I thought we were refering to him by his nickname..."blacksquirrle"

Actually, it was Dan's SV beater that gave me the idea....I cannot wait to get this thing out on the street.

I've got an '01 SV, same color minus the fancy rear shock and other bling... yours looks very nice.

I lurv my SV. Originally bought it as a re-entry "which bike do I really want to ride?" bike and after my first season with it, figured out the SV is the bike I really want.

Have you thought about a thumper to complete the sequence?

I've always got a line...

I found an SV as well, but it needs engine work. Hesitant to go all the way out to the Albany area to see it.

I need to find a bike in that price range.

What kind of engine work? And what price range?

[wookie]

thanks. It was a great, great deal. The only down side was driving to knoxville to pick it up...spent the whole weekend in the truck. It was worth it though.

And yeah, it was that bike from WERA forum.

Sweet grab. Way better twin in the stable over the 883 IMO
