I belive that means the tire was manufactured the 35th week of 2007. A three year old tire. That'll do it. I got butned buying tires on-line once. I ordered a set of Dunlops and recieved a 5 year old front tire and a 2 year old rear tire. My local shop would not mount the front tire.

I did post it on the SV Rider (http://forum.svrider.com) forum for a few months in the marketplace. No serious buyers. Yea, it turned out great. It had Leo Vice SBK exhaust, GSXR suspension and timing retard eliminator. I bought the lower fairings on eBay for next to nothing but had to do some reair work to the left side fairing. After 4 years I realized I was trying to turn it into a superbike and decided to buy a new one. I went back and forth between a Ducati 848 and the CBR1000. For economic reasons I went with the CBR. Honda of Avon gave me a nice deal on the CBR. Too bad they are out of business now.

Thanks. It was a fun project.

The SV1000S was great, but I traded it for the Honda. After riding it for 4 years I wanted something sportier. Here it is just before I traded it.

Bay Village. That's still NE, right?
