Final price drop.

Weather is starting to warm up and I have been getting quite a bit of response from Craigslist.

So I figured I would bump it up here again.

MISC answers from inquiries:

Yes, it is still available.

Sorry, price is really not negotiable on the bike. I may be willing to throw in the gear with it, but price for the bike is firm. (KBB assumes it has over 20K miles)

I would have to check when I get home to get the actual sizes of the gear is, but I believe I purchased Mediums for everything and size 11 shoes. (I am 6'1", 180lbs, and everything fit fine. Jacket is a little on the smaller side than I like, but it worked)

Title is clear.

Any known issues are cosmetic. (As can be seen in the pictures)
Some rashes on the fairings
Missing 1 bar end (Roughly $15 to get 2 new ones)
Missing 1 frame cover ($44 if bought from OEM seller. Just a piece of plastic)
Makeshift shift lever (works fine, I never bothered to change it. Roughly $15 for a new one)

I had fixed the Green Connector issue that is extremely common on the SV650S. (http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=210993&highlight=)
((The pics in the first pic are of this bike. I have not had any issues since it was repaired))
I also had it fixed up by Road Track & Trail for damage that was initially there when I bought it. (Bent radiator, needed new fan assembly)
I have the receipt for this.

Bike has never been dropped, set down, etc. by me. Any and all damage was there when I bought it and has not had any impact on drivability (minus the green connector thing).
I installed the frame sliders and tank grips practically when I bought it. (Was my first bike so wanted to make sure to try and protect it a little in case of accidents)

I started it up and ran it for a few minutes about a week ago. (Somebody else was going to come and see it)

Yes it does come with the rear seat

No I do not have a trailer for it.

Regarding price: It is pretty firm. I am already taking a loss due to the maintenance/parts I put into it (mainly the radiator.....). I would keep it if I had the time to ride it. Unfortunately I usually have to take too much stuff with me to work everyday, so I am stuck taking the car.

A SV isn't worth that, not in that shape, and I love the things!

I sold mine for well under what you are asking, with a lot less miles and a lot more done to it two years ago. If you would take $2000 I would send you a boatload of LTC right now, but I doubt that would fly.

http://www.kbb.com/motorcycles/suzuki/sv650/2003-suzuki-sv650/suggestedretailvalue/

Good luck with the sale.


Thank you for the offer.
Yea. That is too low for me right now. Maybe $2500 if bought and picked up this weekend, but I can't do $2000.

I gave up on using KBB for motorcycles. Before I bought this bike I checked KBB against every bike I saw and KBB was always quite a bit lower than all of them. (from Dealers and Owners)

Right now, you are correct. My price is probably a little high since it can't actually be ridden.
But once spring rolls around, and everyone else's prices start to rise (which they always do around spring), I know it will sell quickly for my asking price locally.

I will bid 2.9 you have a trailer with it?

Thank you for the bid!
It is little lower than I would like to take for the bike right now though.
(Sorry for the ticker on the first page. It is a little deceiving since it takes Mt.Gox price, which is about $100 over everyone else.)

No, I do not have a trailer.
So buyer would either need to have a trailer to pick it up or would have to ride it home (what I did when I purchased it).

If I get an offer that I am willing to take now, and buyer does not have a trailer, I would not mind keeping it in my garage until buyer can come get it in spring.
(Offer would have to be at least 3k. 2,750 for bike and I would just consider the extra 250 rent for garage storage)

Man would I love this thing! If it's not sold by the spring time, I might be very interested in this!

QFT. Haha.

I am planning on fixing up a few of the small things before spring.

Replacing the shift lever. (The one on it is fully functional and the only one that's been on it for as long as I have owned the bike, but it is kind of junky. So I figure I'll replace it since it's cheap)

Replacing the right side frame cover. (Just a black piece of plastic which you can see in the pictures that is missing. The one screw that was there stripped so I ended cracking the frame cover when getting it off. Again, it's cheap so I might as well replace it.)

Other than that, and the cosmetic fairing damage, it is a great bike. I just don't have the time to ride it as much as I'd like. :/

I'm actually quite surprised how few people are selling bikes for BTC (or any coins for that matter).
To me they seem like a great price point to get into coins or get more coins.
They are not so cheap that you are only getting a coin or two.
But they are also not too expensive, so if the price of coin plummets for whatever reason - you aren't going to be living on the streets in a box. haha.

Personally I couldn't sell my home for coins. I don't have the money to replace it in case something bad happens with coins. Too big of a risk for me.
But I feel that motorcycles or anything else in the 2-10k range are things that quite a few people can afford to "play" with.

Haha. Well shipping to Europe would only double the price.  Roll Eyes

Yeah... unfortunately no one's selling any bikes for BTC where I live   Sad

What bike do you currently have?
(That's the kind of driving a normally do, about 20 miles each way on the highway to and from work. Then on good weekends, when I'm not busy, I can hit some of the twisty country roads a little further northwest of me)

I would consider buying it if you were located in Central Europe Wink

Got one bike already but need something that's more suitable for normal roads/highways.

Free bump.

Has anyone actually bought it?
If I had a licence I would have bought it, it looks so nice..  Cry

Thanks.

Nope, still available.
I think people don't like the fact that it is not in perfect cosmetic condition. (I know I was hesitant when I was first looking)
But after I thought about it, I didn't want to buy a cosmetically perfect bike. Since it was my first bike, I figured there was a pretty good chance of me dumping/tipping it, so I didn't mind if it already had a few bumps and scratches. (Luckily I never actually dumped/tipped/scratched it, but it made me feel better that if I were to ever damage it at all, that it was already a little on the rough side)
