Just got a killer deal on an SV1000s

[mpb218]

Just picked up a 2003 SV1000S, (the S means naked) for 2300 bucks! Mint condition, totally stock, 3400 miles. I don't know what I am going to do with 2 bikes, sell one probably... I have to see how I like the 1000 and see what one goes. Funny though, not long ago at all I was talking about getting a bigger bike. Pics soon.

Not a good pic, but it's all I have right now. That's the FZ in the background!

It seem like you got a good deal. :rockon:
I love the SV. :cheer: I had a 650S before the FZ.


The cost of insurance is keeping me away from 1000's

Yeah I haven't called yet to get a price, that could be the determining factor on what one to keep. I just couldn't pass up on this.

I thought the S meant it had the half-fairing, and the plain SV1000 was the naked one Either way that is a sweet bike, I have always liked them.

Congratulations, I've actually had my eyes on this particular model year and color, I've read good reviews. Post some more pics if you can, also a vid if it's not to much to ask for . I've seen them here in L.A. going between
$2500-$3500 depending on the mileage.

:thumbup:

I've owned two of these and a 650 as well. Awesome bike. Make sure you do the TPS adjustment, PAIR removal, drop the forks 10mm and go up 2 teeth on the rear. Then you'll be laughing

Nice! I've only riden a V-twin once (Duc 1000s) and it was nice experience. Rougher and more fun (at least in the city) than any I4 I have ridden. Good choice and something different in case you decide to keep both

 

[Humperdinkel]

Nice looking bike , never had the opporunity to ride one but they seem to go well enough behind me :BLAA:...... Sound sweet with Scorpion pipes too :rockon:

 

[yamahaha]

i thought the s meant sport. i had a 650s and it was fully faired w/ the not streetfighter headlight set up

Very nice! Does it have a clear title? She is a pretty bike. I WISH I could find one for that price around my town I would jump on it, then give the FZ to the GF to ride.

Awesome, beautiful bike... ugly color. I was looking for one of these before I decided on the Fiz. Awesome torque, wonderful machine... it's a shame they quit making them.

:rockon:

funny about the picture you posted, it appears that the fizzer is creeping in from behind to do a drop kick on the competition.

Hm then I don't know. It has a belly pan but I don't know if its aftermarket. Clear title, the guy just didn't want to ride anymore I guess and was moving, good for me. I called about insurance today, would you believe its ONLY 3 dollars more a year than the FZ!??! Yes, THREE. And I don't pay much for insurance at all, with BOTH bikes insured its 254.00 a year. Wow. Might keep em.

PS. Liability insurance.

Sweet.. Ive always liked the Sv1000S.. And thats an awesome price!
Only 300 more than I paid for my 06 Fz

 

[Bikebiz]

To clear confusion, the SV1000 is the full naked, the SV1000S is the half faired. There is no full faired except a limited run in the UK, the SV1000R.

 

[Bosgarage57]

Wow, Nice find guy! Eh might as well keep it just incase the FZ is getting maintanenced (sp?) or something. I think she is beautiful, like the color. I am very jelous.
