Thread: Got a new bike guys!

    Got a new bike guys!

    Finally got what I was looking for. Picked up an 06 sv650s today and got a great deal. A couple blemishes but cant complain at all. The SV is much much better than my ninja 500r in every way. Anyways it was a good bike to begin with but onto bigger and better! So lets get out and ride soon! Pic time.

    How many miles? I have on 03 sv1000s and it is great! I almost bought the 650 instead. My bike has been really low maintenance too. Just finished the 15,000 mile check up. Here it is ready for a trip.

    nice bike! my bike has 5000 miles on it so its just getting started. I see me keeping this bike for a long long time, i really want to get that lower fairing for my 650 that you have on yours. Will it fit the 650?

    Those saddle bags and tank bag are from Nelson Rigg I found the saddle bags on Amazon for around $119.00 and I think I paid about $45.00 for the tank bag.

    They work great the only thing I can say bad about them is they have faded in the sun a bit.

    Re: Got a new bike guys!

    I just noticed that! You are looking for the chin spoiler for a 650 SV. You can probably find one on ebay or maybe on a wrecked one locally.

    Good luck and enjoy! There are a few fan site on the web for that bike as well they will have tons of info on it and where to find add on stuff for it!

    bc_500r, the chin spoiler is from Oneida Suzuki. It is 650 specific, the 1000 one has slightly different mounting hole locations

    Peace

    Re: Got a new bike guys!

    They make a little smaller version that might work better for your bike. I bought mine that big to fit my work laptop in.

    Think about what you want to bring on our trips and that will help you decide.

    Nelson Rigg has a web site with owner pics.
