aaaaahahahahahah good marketing i agree.. but they market to a bunch of wannabes is how i see it. i have ridden a few harleys, a few big dog choppers, some victories, yamahas, ive ridden alot of bikes, but i never got emersed into a lifestyle from a ride on one bike or the next. thats why i ride a touring bike lol.. saddlebags, top touring trunk.. everyone i know thinks the luggage looks gay... but it serves a purpose. its useful.. and so should the bike you ride.. for whatever reason it may be, except to fit in to a lifestyle lol

well what can i say i love this little thing, but plans for some home renovations are costing more than expected... and with 3 bikes in the garage i can sacrifice one so we arent stretching our budget for our renovations. 2000 Suzuki SV650 very fun bike to ride for beginners and seasoned riders alike. plenty of power from the 650cc vtwin the mileage is 26k now for the goodies AFAM sprockets, 520 chain conversion K&N air filter Micron full exhaust, can as chopped to make it shorter Carbs were cleaned and jet kit installed i took the old standard gauges off and installed a Trail Tech Vapor, its LCD, digital tach, digital speedo, ambient temp, engine temp, everything you could want on a nice bright LCD display. i just put brand new Michelin Pilot Power 2CT tires on it, they have about 170 miles on them. Clubracer handlebars undertail fender eliminator oil changed 170 miles ago, mobile 1 racing 4T full synthetic brake fluid was flushed and filled with motul coolant was flushed and filled with Honda HP 50/50 coolant chain cleaned, lubed and adjusted this bike is super light and tons of fun! gas tank has some blemishes on it.. needs nothing, ready to ride! $2300 takes it home you guys get it cheaper i have clear clean title ready to go. i have it listed higher on craigslist here is a link to a youtube video, you can hear it run and get a better idea of the bike, it was a cold start so mind the little backfire in the beginning lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7XT9L0hWNg and a on board from deals gap area http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRDRXI4uxzE

that VFR is SEXY

yeah you need to swing that thing by so i can put the Avon Storms back on it. guys this bike very nice and clean. The avons are brand new the bike runs flawlessly... awesome bike to say the least

lol.. id take my bikes to you if you were closer, and i didnt feel like doing the shit myself

im in columbus.. could have saved him the same..

lol if i didnt work ALL THE TIME

yeah good luck.. i have been searching for a gps that will just do route planning.. plan my route on the computer and transfer to the gps.. the only ones besides the garmin zumos are the garmin 765 series and up. so your looking atleast at about $300 used and up

this is coming from deals gap resort's facebook page the state of TN put a gate up and a huge sign saying travel at your own risk.. or something of that nature, i guess that is temporary though

Michelin Pilot Road 2CT i have them on the VFR and love them great mileage out of them, and they still stick in the corners like glue

thanks for stopping by man, good to meet you and shoot the shit about bikes.

00 Suzuki SV 650 likes: light as hell very fun bike to just toss around wheelies well good torque pulling out of the turns v twin sound is nice with a can on it. love the naked look just an all around fun bike low purchase price used huuuuuuge aftermarket more than enough power to have fun, but not enough to get you in deep shit riding position is comfortable enough, and jsut have soft spot for that upright, over the top, dirtbike type seating position on this thing. easy to ride for a beginner, but still fun as hell for a seasoned rider dislikes: brakes arent great compared to a sport bike suspension isnt great compared to a sport bike its carbed.. stock gauges are shitty ( buy a trailtech vapor) once you buy one you want to buy alot of stuff for it to make it better (suspension, gauges, brakes, exhaust, etc) the whole swingarm setup is outdated wish it ran standard superbike size tires

03 Honda VFR 800 Interceptor likes: perfect all around bike, can keep up with the sportbikes in the twisties, but put some bags on it and its good to go for a week long trip. ABS and linked brakes, once you have them you wont want a bike without them. light on its tires for such a big bike, once your rolling you dont notice the weight at all mileage per tank is great, 200+ miles before a refuel the sound of the v4 with the pipes in just amazing! reliability, aside from the normal.. tires, oil change, brakes.. this thing doesnt need much to keep running, just check the valves every 20k and your good to go. comfort, its the perfect in between from a touring bike and sportbike. enough comfort for long trips, but still gives you that sportbike seating when you need it. single sided swing arm.. do i need to say anymore? power. it has plenty of it 2 up capabilites.. will handle 2up just fine, and the passenger is rather comfortable. digital gauges, with digital fuel level, ambient temp, engine temp and others is just great Center stand FTW! stock lighting is some of the best i have seen dislikes.. when loaded down with luggage and a passenger, the suspension seems at its end valve clearance checks... if you cant do it yourself prepare to get butt raped at the dealership low end is kind of jumpy (remove PAIR valve assembly to fix that) vtec transition is very harsh... power commander will sort that if your looking for a straight touring bike, its a little cramped compared to a FJR, ST, or concourse. again if your looking for a straight touring bike, the riding position is not as touring as those mentioned above a bit heavy to push around when you have the bags on. stock seat sucks for rider and passenger windscreen could be a bit taller to knock some of the wind off more.

agreed

might be a hot second till the video is fully processed and the quality is better, but here it is. great thing about this weekend was i got rid of the chicken strips on the SV and VFR.. well both had brand new tires... so they never really had chicken strips to begin with, but hey the tires are worn edge to edge now lol.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRDRXI4uxzE

the first day there, i woke up with a terrible cold, so it wasnt the greatest time i have had there, but i made the best of it.
