I've been on the hunt for a nice sv650 all summer, most have been pretty beat up, and just not the right price.

So I finally found the one!

2007 sv650 naked in Candy Sonoma Red, came with a bunch of accessories (that I'm selling) and super excited to get to riding her!

Day I got her, already has a good selection of "goodies" OEM Gel seat, frame sliders, stock flyshield, TechSpec tank grips. Also included a Givi rack, a touring box, another taller wind screen, tank bags, etc.

Took the small flyshield off to see how she looks, and took off the rack.

And today I picked up a Delkevic exhaust that sounds AMAZING!

I had the same exact bike... Like an idiot, I got rid of it for a Kawasaki Versys. Great bike! Enjoy it!

I like the fly-screen. Best color IMO.

Great bike, I had an 03. Added a chin spoiler like the SV1000, bar ends and the flyscreen as well.

Welcome to the club! I ride an 05 SV650S model in candy grand blue. I feel the SV is a kickass bike. I also have that same exhaust you just got it was a steal at the price. The 9-inch unbaffled Delkevic which screams like a banshee on the SV makes the vtwin sound badass. If you're looking for even more loudness I desnorkled my airbox which a lot of svriders will do, coupled with the Delkevic its very throaty. I also have the stock gel seat which I feel is stiffer than stock and also raises the seat height 1.5 inches, if you ever want to try a stock seat I still have mine you can throw on. Looks very clean man! There are a lot of SV on this forum would be nice to see a few at some of the meets/runs! Also if looking for other sv riders to ride with I hang with a few and ride a bunch I am also next to englewood if any questions or issues with the SV come up or if ever wanting to cruise/ride!

Yeah, mine came with a Gel seat and the stocker. So far I dont have any issues with the Gel seat yet, I'm pretty tall, so the height is not a problem.

I'm excited to take her on a spirited ride!

Yes spirited ride let's do it! I live where the 25/225 freeways meet. I ride with another guy who also has a naked version his is a 2003 (he posted on that svrider forum to your thread) We ride together a lot.

Otherwise there is the Jessica Ridgeway run this sunday meeting at Fay Myers and riding up to Westminster as a group. Me and the other SV rider plan to do a ride afterwards as well while the weather is good and you are welcome to join

How's the Gel Seat, I wouldn't mind giving it a shot on my 1000N, it's a bit of a butt number stock after 100 miles or so
