That's a stock SV650X.
The X is the 'cafe racer' version of the SV650, but you knew that.

I feel like it had potential, but they shot wide of the mark. Quite a ways wide.weeksy wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 9:36 pm https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suzuki-SV650 ... SwPsFfGU00

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
I should start a new thread...
Ebay bikes I want to buy, but probably won't.
I've got a strange obsession with the last of the GSXR1100's. I might buy one some day, but they seem to have a bit of a following and prices are going up. So I started looking at the 750's.
There's something about up and over framed GSXR's that I really like.
It's local and it's pocket money, but I'll still not buy it.

Looks proper mint!

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
On one of the FB racing forums, somebody just now, put up a video of TT Proddy race at Carnaby. A 21 year old Mr Whitham mullered them all on a GSXR1100KungFooBob wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 10:34 pm I should start a new thread...

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
They're a nice enough bike, but by then they were blown into the weeds by the YZF and ZXRs, the SRAD was a huge step forward, they just feel old to ride.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 10:34 pm I should start a new thread...

They're cheap because they're in the no man's land between "classic" oil coolers and SRADs.
The only real 1100s worth talking about are the Slabsides and the "L"
I do have a hankering for the infamous "K" in black though.

Re: Ebay 'WTF' bikes
I'm astounded someone can build that, take a picture and say "yup, that's exactly what I was going for"

That's why he's selling it. He took a look and realised it'd be easier to start again.
