For Sale/Wanted to Buy / Re: 2004 SV650S for sale

Ian,
If you can't sell yours, I doubt I will sell mine with over 50K miles. (Mostly sunday rides no commute) though mine is nicer  :)
I do like the R. I wonder what would they offer me as a trade in.  ;)

Makes you feel is it all worth it. No matter how skilled you are, there is a factor of luck (or bad luck) to all of this.
The more you ride, especially in rural areas, the higher the risk.

Maybe stick to track days only, single track off road only or move to mountain biking entirely.

Ian,
I made the mistake of test riding a street triple R at 8am this morning. I love it. Great engine, very smooth gear shifting. It is the only bike I can see replacing my SV. (Maybe an air cooled Monster  1100)
Did you sell yours?
Anybody interested in a first generation (One of the first in the country) SV650S? The only bike I ever bought new over 9 years ago.
Will help me pay for a down payment on a  Speed triple R.  :)

Bike Help / Tire manufacturing date
« on: June 23, 2010, 04:39:21 PM »
 
I have 3 different tires that were never used. The manufacturing date on them is 04 and 05. Just out of curiosity, do you guys think they are compromised in any way?
I plan on using them (This year) even if they are.  :-*

Not too encourging. What about low end torque? more than the SV?

Let me know when you are taking it for a test ride at Balck Hawk. Hope to get a chance to do a weekend over there this year.

I sometime joke that the gear on me and on my motorcycles is worth more than the bike I ride.

I am still amazed at people riding with 10k+ bike that are skimming on gear.

General Banter / Re: Helmets, as in buying a new one.
« on: May 08, 2010, 06:00:57 PM »
Bought the new RX-Q from the Helmet shop a couple of weeks ago. It's my third Arai from that place. I tried other brands, but they don't work for me.(Although I still have hard time with taking off and putting back an Arai shield. ) The helmet shop final price was almost $100 less than what is advertised on their web site. Once you check out, they give you the discounted price. Very strange, but it was a good surprise.  I am very happy to have the brow vent again.  ;D

Octavia,
I am glad you hear you are still on this list.  I remember how a few years back you let an out of town  friend of mine borrow your motorcycle for a whole weekend. That's without knowing my frined or I. That weekend your motorcycle had to go through a lot of water crossings as Roger Tony and Larry would attest.  :D
