Just picked up this 2004 Suzuki SV650 off of some kinfolk of the (in)famous @VonYinzer. I had been borrowing my dad's Buell xb12s for a bit as he's been recovering from open heart surgery, but he's ready to ride again so I was in the market for something cheap and fun to be my daily for a while. It's been sitting for about 5 years so it'll need gone over, but it has some good stuff on it. R1 forks, gsxr rear shock. Two brothers can etc.

I know that bike, Dock's BIL rode it to Mid-O the year I went with him, Jussy and Brad. Nice scoot

Yep, thats the one. Its been sitting probably almost since that trip. I just looked and the tags were last current in 2015, so closer to 8 years than 5. Tank is corroded and mice had made a home of the airbox, but I'm still hopeful that it wont take much to have it road ready by spring

Nice. Shame it got parked but glad someone is going to get it back on the road.

That should be a fun daily, man. I had an 04 Yellow 650 for a couple of years. Way more fun than the Wee-Strom

Funny enough, Dock painted this one blue some time ago but it was yellow originally..

I rode a friend of mines 3rd gen sv650 years ago, and that was enough for me to know Id be happy with the performance of the powerplant.

After lifting a pretty heavy bike onto a stack of wooden blocks I bought a scissor jack. Vevor brand rated to 1100 pounds it seems to be decent quality. Amazon had them on the Black Friday sale at a decent but not great price.
