2003 Suzuki Sv on 2040-motos

TIRED OF DEALING WITH DISTRACTED DRIVERS and other asshats? Would you rather ride as fast as you are able, only limited by your skill and ability? If you're tired of looking for decent roads to ride on, investigate the world of track days and motorcycle racing- the SV650 is a great bike for both.

Tracks are great- everybody's going in the same direction, there's no speed traps, nobody's going to pull out from the side street or intersection, the only speed limit is your own- which only grows through experience. There's also great camaraderie at the track and if you do happen to lay it down, there are rarely obstacles in your way to hit and most tracks have decent run-off area. If you have an injury where you can't make it on your own, the meatwagon is on standby already. Best of all, it doesn't take all the queen's silver to make it happen.

So, in spite of all the positives, I'm moving on in my weekend quests as I've found sliding on my ass is probably NOT what this grandad needs to be doing these days. Yes this bike is not a garage queen and has had a few low sides- most courtesy of turns 1 and 4 at VIR...

That said, it's rock solid mechanically, has all the goodies and is a great mount if you're ready to learn how to ride a bike through the corners. The bodywork is pretty tired but still very functional. I've found that if you don't put it down every now and then, you're simply not trying to learn hard enough.

Since I've owned it beginning in 2007 its seen 20 odd track days and three race weekends with a couple of podiums at CCS events to boot.

Details are as follows:

2003 with 2005 engine (the tranny failed on the original and easier to swap out the original vs repairing it. Engine courtesy of Speedwerks in Dover, DE)

Woodcraft Clip-ons
Yoyodyne Slipper Clutch
EBC pads (front only- I have no idea what's on the back as they are rarely used...)
Russel stainless rear line and Kevlar lines on front.
Renthal grips
Scott steering stabilizer
Penske Double click rear shock
Brand New Dunlap D211 GP's
Cheetah race bodywork
safety wired
M4 full exhuast
Power Commander ECU

Also included:

Pit Bull Front and Rear stands
extra front and rear wheels- both in great shape and used to swap out whenever I got new meats
original clutch
various Vortex front and rear sprockets in addition to an extra rear sprocket hub
four clip ons and probably a half dozen brake/clutch levers.


NOTE!!!!!! Though the title is clear- it is not in my hands. The original owner was military who sold it to me prior to being transferred, couldn't find it at the time and promised to forward it to me. Needless to say it never happened but with the low investment I never really worried about it after checking the VIN database it make sure it wasn't stolen. I expect this will be an issue for most, but if you never plan on putting it on the street (why would you want to...?) it should never come up until you're in my situation and want to sell it.

Also, I have no idea how many miles are really on it- the speedo is disconnected as it's a distraction anyway, but regardless, the motor runs great with no leaks and no smoke. I can forward a video of it being started cold if you'd like.

Overall it's a strong running bike ready to hit the track. It's set up for 220 lbs- but even with my weight I could overtake my buddy on his Gen 2 SV- and about 50 lbs lighter.

The bike is located in VA Beach, VA- auction is for pick up only, but I can physically assist loading if you buy it and want to use a shipping service like UShip.

Feel free to ask questions, and thanks for looking!
