    Back on a sv

    After shattering my lower leg in a freak backyard football incident I sold the 955i.
    Just picked up a 2000 SV650 for $1500. Looking forward to riding a twin again. Used to own a 02 SV650s and also raced an SV years ago.
    Just need to restrain myself from racing it.

    Well, I bought it from my buddy who broke my leg so there was a bit of a discount, lol.

    I would love to get back to racing. Not in the cards at the moment however

    You guys are not helping! Been out of the game for a few years. Would mean going through penguin again, suspension set up, other costs, etc. Got a kid on the way so the wife may leave me if I go back racing right now

    Haha, I bought my 08 SV650S from a guy who hurt his knee and couldn't ride it anymore.

    ....And now I've hurt my knee and can't ride it anymore....
