Well what do we have here...?

Forgive the quick cellphone picture, I had to get back to work after the sale.

2004 SV650S. Only mods are the larger windscreen and adjustable, raised clipons.

Damn shame it rained once I got off work!

Very nice sir! I bet you can't wait to flaunt the florescent vest!

Awesome, I love my SV

Does this one actually run?

Go rain riding, it's good fun!

Cool!

HEY. The other one ran...

This one's forks are straight, though.

Yeah, the other one is still sitting under a pile of rubbish IIRC

Poor thing. I should go rescue it when I'm home for Christmas.

You should. He'd never notice. That place is a E36 M3hole.

how much? A friend offered to me his 04 for $3000 with 16,000 miles.

I am half tempted, but I'd be using college loans to do it.

Hmm, that sure is a funny lookin' 1125R.

Sounds decent. I bought my '00 with 23k miles for $2300

That's a little less than what I paid, though I have less miles.

Will we see this new steed on Saturday??

I think a funny lookin' 1125R would be an attractive bike. The 1125 is uuuugly!

Negative. I'm getting it tagged back home (horray no inspections!) so it's limited to sneaking around the subdivision for now while my paperwork is being mailed.

Boo.

For the 5 large that they are selling for right now in some places, I think I could learn to live with the looks. But you definitely can't go wrong with an SV.

Love my DL, essentially the same engine. Nice buy.

Went for a nice ride today. No post-purchase regrets have developed!

It needs a pipe, though. And a kit to delete that stupid plastic rear fender. The guy threw in some decent softbags for it, I might go on a short trip next weekend.
