    First-gen Suzuki SV650S (actually started life as an SV650) race bike project... or the source of all of your spares. I finally admitted I won't ever fix it and I already have a working track/race SV, so you can take it for a pittance to free up room for other projects. $2000 OBO and if you need it delivered we can talk about that... gas isn't cheap these days, though.

    Whole bunch of high-res pictures at https://imgur.com/a/avdhVel

    The good:
    - has an actual manufacturer's certificate
    - has the highly coveted Keihin FCR flatslide race carbs
    - full front-end conversion off of an '04 or '05 GSX-R750.
    - rear rim is adapted from a CBR600F3 (5.0" instead of stock SV 4.5")
    - woodcraft rearsets
    - custom subframe with trick relocation destination for crank breather under the rear bodywork
    - braided steel rear brake line
    - two full sets of track bodywork & spare fuel tank
    - spare set of original SV650S forks with 0.85 kg/mm race-tech springs
    - so many spare parts... a sprocket, wheel bearings & spacers, gears & cam gears, timing chain, oil filter, plenty of spark plugs, crank bearings, intake boots, carb rebuild kits, valve cover, base, & cylinder head gaskets, clutch springs, ignition coils, tank insulators & pivot bolt...
    - A whole stock dash, radiator fan, spare stator, front wiring harness, kill & sidestand switches, with other spare bits of harness/fusebox that were removed.
    - Spare throttle, choke, & clutch cables, more than one copy of some.
    - Spare rear brake rotor, clutch plates, lower triple, fork seals, pod filters, velocity stacks, high exhaust mount, cam chain tensioners, axle, & throttle tube.
    - random cool metal bling/protection pieces + sliders
    - already drilled for safety wiring
    - all manner of dyno-tuning graphs, one of them laminated (ooh, aah!)
    - Fox rear shock on the bike, spare stock shock and extra rear spring included in sale.
    - engine has had performance work under past ownership but I have no record of what. Cams are not stock and I believe there are high comp pistons.
    - the rear stand comes with the bike (it has no sidestand)

    The bad:
    - no front brake lever, master cylinder, or front brake lines. You'll have to source those from elsewhere, but the calipers are there!
    - The clutch is gone. Basket is there, but no clutch plates or springs.
    - The exhaust is gone. No headers, no midpipe, no muffler.
    - The tires have date codes back to 2012 despite how good they look.
    - There is a battery but it's completely dead, you'll need a new one

    Again, have a look at the bunch of pictures at https://imgur.com/a/avdhVel and PM with any questions. Thanks for looking!

    $1700? Won't really go much lower than this before the only sensible move is to part it out.
