Im thinking about getting one, a 2003 same shape 24,000 miles. £2500. Seems a bit expensive but its got the fairing lowers. Some history. Im px my Honda vfr800x crossrunner 2012 62 18000. I also own a tidy GPZ500S. The SV should compliment.
If you are from the UK have a shop around on eBay and Auto trader you might find a better deal. Great bikes though, mines tucked away for winter at the moment but can't wait for spring 👍
Cheers, Yeah. I'm in Oxfordshire. Tried ebay and trader. Not many decent bikes below £2500 these days. Not overly keen on the main roads, I hunt out cafes on the back roads. Enjoy bud.
Hi there, I'm 6ft 1" .... I'm a 33" inside leg so a big leggy and the bike is comfortable enough. Probably depends on your age and flexibility as to whether you'd be comfortable. I normally stop for a leg stretch about every 50 or 60 miles. Maybe try a test ride before you buy 👍
@@djbgatekeeper when you say clip, what exactly are you refereing to? I currently have a KLR650 and am looking at getting a SV650S for a more sport style

Could I ask if you bought it privately or from a dealer?
Hi there, it was from a dealer. The ones from private sellers were all high mileage at the time. Regards Dave.
how much do you "lay forward" on this bike? is it like the Yamaha YZF R3?
Yes very similar with clip on handle bars. Also depends how long your arms are I suppose 🙂
