Greetings from AZ. I'm a n00b here but have worked in the motorcycle business for over 16 years now. I have many different motorcycles ranging from a 6 cylinder Bagger to a 3 cylinder Sportbike to a couple of single cylinder Harleys. On the offroad side I like to ride in Observed Trials competitions and just do some simple trail riding...
I recently bought an '01 SV650 for my son and am trying to bring it from being a cross between a roach and a rat to something respectable. So far, so good...
The bike runs halfway OK now so it's on to making it look decent. It was an 'S' model but the fairings, headlight and brackets are trashed so I'm currently running an Acerbis Cyclops headlight and some bar end mirrors. He's only riding with Mrs. Weazel and I so the speedo and such aren't so important. As long as he doesn't pass us then he's fine. I think we're going to switch from the red to the candy grand blue colour since Weazel Jr is a 'blue' kinda kid, and we're buying all new bodywork anyway...
I'll get some pics up in the near future.
All the best
