Ok guys/gals, I'm considering purchasing a leftover 2004 SV650S to be ridden 80% on the street, 20% on the track (track days, no checkered flag involved).  Is there anything I should be worried about with the '04 motor??  For some reason I thought I remembered some sort of motor problem that plaqued the newer SVs, but I could be wrong.  FYI - I'm kind of a fatty at about 235lbs in full race gear.

Also tell me the best source for exhaust...I need a high mount, and I'm looking to get rid of all the passenger gear.  Is the FI programmable or is it an Eprom chip?

Thanks for your help.

dont worry about motor.
get Leo Vince.
it is programable

 

[maverickma]

So where is the best place to buy Leo Vince's online? And....my buddy who is a sales guy is going to sell me the brand new 04 for $6,160 out the door. Is this a good price?

 

[MeLLow_YeLLoW]

A little high  for a leftover '04  5900 sounds more reasonable to me

here's a link i found for some leo vince exhausts....shop around you might find a better deal.

I hope your buddy is going to use lube as your purchasing that bike, I bought mine a little better than a month ago for $5400.00 ;D

 

[maverickma]

OK , slow down here with the lube jokes....I've heard people say $5400 and $5600.  Was this including tax and motor vehicle fees?  The $6161 I'm talking about includes everthing.  If your prices include all the fees, I'll shop around some more.

And if someone can tell me where to go in NJ or the surrounding states to find these prices....I owe you a drink.

About a month ago I paid $6,200 out the door for a 2005! 0 miles on it!

 

[maverickma]

Keep the quotes coming everyone!! Come on!! Need to get a feel for the price.

Not sure if this helps, since I bought it used but I got an 03' SV650s for $4600 shipped from a guy in Alaska off these forums, 3.3k miles.

 

[GTKrockeTT]

i paid $5600 OTD for an 04 SV650 back in May.

 

[RandyO]

OTD ? I have no clue what registration & taxes are in your state

a frine of mine bought a nekid 05 back in April for $5500 + NH registration

that included extended warranty that I think is a waste

 

[ls14ever]

Well, I got my 2005 sv650 naked for $5900 OTD this spring.

You can do alot better on price with a leftover '04. Especially since we're nearing the end of the 2005 season. Just remember that already almost a 2 year old bike.

 

[maverickma]

Problem solved.  I bought a 2004 Aprilia Mille.  Thanks for your help everyone.  I'll be back one day....I still want one of these for a track bike.
