I've realized that my SV1000S is too aggressive for my daily commute, and i don't have time to ride it outside that, so that will be put on sale.
Just brought home this old sloth of a bike, payed 7000 DKK => 1000$ which is cheap around here (all motorcycle and cars is taxed 180%, so all bike/cars is more expensive in Denmark)
I starts and runs well, and is a pretty smooth ride, -though a bit on the boring side.
The idea is to make it a cheap, reliable comfy commuter bike (with a bit of style), that i can ride to work now and then.
It has to be street legal, which means i can only use E-marked parts for lights, indicators and so on.
Cutting the frame is also a total no-go for this build, as the rules in Denmark also prohibits that.
Any changes to frame has to be approved with calculation of strengths, handling tests and a lot of nonsensical bureaucratic bullshit, which can easily cost 1000$. -So that's out of the question.
It's originally imported from Germany, and we don't have a lot of them in DK, so local information and help is very poor.
I'm hoping that there might be some guys on here that has some knowledge of these bikes, common issues, things to look out for, and even where to find parts & information.
Right now i'm trying to determine what year it is, its first registered in denmark 1990, but its only supposed to be manufacutred between 82-87.
Serial number is KZ750P008764, but i haven't figured out how to read the production year from that, any help?
