You have for sale a 2005 SV650 S, located in Central Florida, asking $4500.
Still a clean street bike, Florida title. App 20k miles, 14,232 showing. Yellow.

2003 GSX-R 600 front end, complete with steel braided lines, fresh EBC pads & steering damper
Leo Vince Ti full exhaust, high mount, dinged but works fine
Power Commander III
K&N air filter
Zero Gravity Double Bubble windscreen, clear
Frame savers
Keyless gas cap, black anodized
Rearset plates, black anodized
EK 525 chain
Sunstar sprockets
Michelin Pilot Powers, app 70% tread left
Haynes hardbound manual '99-'05, new
Kryptonite disc lock
Spare tank, also yellow & pre-dented for track use, with StompGrip
Set up for 175#:
.90 Sonic Springs in the forks, fresh 7.5 wt Motorex oil
'05 ZX-10 shock

Bike is about 90% drilled & wired for WERA tech. There are a few dings & scratches in the tail plastics from the previous owner's stress testing. Tank & the upper are fine.

Stock windscreen, shock & exhaust are included.
Stock mudflap restored, but small turn signals not yet installed.

I bought this thing from friend A in May so he could buy a new truck with the intention of selling it to friend B so he could race it this season.(Getting out of Vintage into a class where Novices & Experts score separately)
Friend B got laid off, I have too many other bikes to manage (8), mostly Vintage, & my g/f is too scared to ride this bike in traffic. It's a hoot to ride, gets 50 mpg on the interstate, & I'm considering racing it myself. It just needs bodywork installed & drain the coolant.

Bike is in Lakeland, Fl. I can bring it as far as Jennings GP, a 3 hour drive for me. But I'm not driving that far for free.

Reach me at ZX1088@hotmail.com, or PM me here. I won't list a phone # in an open forum.

Let's make a deal! Price is negotiable depending on which parts you want: don't need the manual, a lock or prefer your gas tank to lock? Lowers the sale price.
I'm trying to learn photobucket:
(These pics are from November, so everything mentioned above is not shown)

I tried to include all the info you might want, but I'm sure I overlooked something. Like when the front end is swapped you lose the speedo/odo housing, or it has fresh spark plugs & Rotella Synth in it.
No, it hasn't been on the track, or raced. Yet. March 8th is coming pretty quick.

The second pic reminded me of the old layout at Moroso!

That place is supposed to be nice now that it's "Palm Beach International Raceway"
But WERA doesn't go that far south.

New camera & still learning photobucket.

Bump myself!
Got a drilled (lightened) rear rotor coming.
An interesting offer would be $4k for just the bike, with the STOCK windscreen, footpegs, gas cap & shock. No lock, manual, spare tank, swingarm spools, etc.

Bump again!
New set of Trackskins aquired & about to be installed. Upper & lower are red, tail is now white. Black fender remains.
Come see this bike run at Jennings this weekend!
Pics from trackside to follow.
This changes the range of offer possibilities: $4k for bike in race trim, no street stuff.

These are from JGP this past weekend. Ran a 1:29.00 on take off slicks & still needs a little sorting on the suspension. It was my first track time on this thing & I'm used to oil-cooled GSX-R's. Won't take much to get this thing on the podium. I got 4th.
Yes, the dented tank is ugly, but it passed Tech & held fuel just fine.
Bodywork came to me red.

Bumpity-bump.
Commuter or track day toy, you decide.
Won't be raced again until May, but it's getting me back & forth to work just fine.

Well, it will be at Jennings this weekend, probably under the trees by Bridgestone.
Looks like I still suck @ photobucket.
Recent additions:
Silver SV rear rim, with rotor & cushes, so I don't have to swap slick to street on one rim. Or as a rain tire. Thanks Evilbay.

F3 rear rim, with rotor, to fit 180 rubber, or change profile of 160. Thanks again, E.
Spare front rim, again so no street/slick swap.

Cat Eye speedometer (bicycle type) for the street, so I don't have to guess by the tach & traffic. Works up to 83, at least, but not in the rain.

Stompgrip deleted. It lost it's stick.

Discovered the double bubble doesn't look right on the trackskins, went with the stocker. Not super happy with the bodywork, but it passed Tech & it is light.

This bike is still (unbelievably) available!
Rear Michelin-gone! Replaced by the only brand, Bridgestone! A nice 090.
New chain added, in 520 pitch. Gold, O-ring.
New Vortex sprockets 14/46, nickel plated steel/aluminum.
Valves just adjusted, fresh oil & filter, Mobil1 Synth/HiFlow.

Finally got it on the dyno: 72.5 HP, 45.7 ft/lbs.

Bike will be racing again at JGP on 5/30-31, then @ RRR the following weekend. I may even buy new tires for it, at least a front.
$5k takes everything except the F3 rear rim: street setup, trackskins, spare rims, etc. I'll even throw in a set of Graves warmers & a front rain tire.

Most recent acquisition: GSX-R 750 USD forks, .90 Sonic springs, fresh 7.5 oil. To be installed soon.

USD forks installed (.90 springs 5wt oil), EK gold x-ring 520 chain, Thust Company aluminum sprockets (15/45), Factory ignition advancer, Factory shift star kit.
Fox shock.
I can bring this thing to GNF. Not planning on racing it there.
Ran it again @ JGP 9/6, best I could do was 1:28.6 on worn slicks. I'm still giving up time in T8, resulting in no speed in T9. That's about 1.5 secs right there.
Fresh pics to be posted later.

OK, SV fans
here's your chance, I have too many bikes & it's the end of the season.

For the low, low price of $3500 USD you can have either:

a street bike
nice clean tank w/ locking cap
ZX- 10 shock
double bubble windscreen
fresh EBC HH brakes
clean Fla title
50 mpg highway

OR:

a LWTSB/F2 racebike
Fox shock
stock windscreen w/ ultra-light Trackskins bodywork
slicks that are on it
EBC kit brakes
pre-dented race tank w/ keyless cap

no spares, no extras, no books, but all the other "on-bike" stuff listed above,
including 1/5 turn throttle that I forgot to list

pick it up @ GNF, buy on We, race on Fr, Sat & Sun!

PM here or email ZX1088 @ the hotmail
