Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Got my bike today. 07sv650s with 2,107 miles on it. Got it for a steal as far as I'm concerned. Heading to the pony tomorrow to get fitted up for a jacket, grab some foot wear while I'm there. Tag it up and insure it on Monday and then get used to it. Can't wait to finally get out on the road, but I'm going to take my time getting used to it so I don't eat shit my first day out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 This isn't the oven, so I should be okay with no pics as far as I'm concerned for the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wants to hear about a bike you bought, we demand pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbird Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Congrats man! Hit me up if you ever want to go for a ride. Even though I've got my Ninja I still kinda want an sv650 lol, there's just something about em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Super shitty pictures. You can see the tiny crack from the previous owner dropping it.

wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 How much did you give for it? I thought you werent getting a smaller bike because insurance was so much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I payed 3200 for this. 2,107 miles, I threw 110 on it today or something like that. I just made my deductible 1000 dollars and it made my rates pretty darn low, and I have some points coming off my license here so they will be even cheaper then. So far I'm having a blast, haven't really pushed it to hard, just getting used to riding and paying attention to everything going on around me. Had one scare today with cars pulling into a neighborhood and getting backed up behind a gate onto the main road but nothing to bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Should have bought my boys bike for $2500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 A 600? Insurance would have been crazy. It's not bad on this because of the V-Twin motor. Either way I payed way less for the bike than what's its market value is. I'm satisfied with the purchase so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 congrats on the purchase, I would say that's a good deal and yeah insurance is a lot cheaper on vtwins....that's why I only bought those, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35RFTW Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 +1 for the SV being a great starter bike. As you learn to ride, you will enjoy it more and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 if you want the front faring fixed let me know, ill get you a good deal on getting it repaired Thanks, but I think I'm going to keep it like this for now, and maybe get it fixed spring time. No point in fixing something if I haven't dropped it yet, and I'm sure it would need done again. Looking forward to riding with some of you before winter.
