It really is. When you get that gear change hooked up properly the noise is just something else.
Same again tomorrow I think

Yeah come on IC3...
Managed a run out to P&H to have a wander round and a gander at their bikes (a multistrada pikes peak in particular), wasn't too cold. Came back via the A264 through some twisties, roads are still very dirty though.

Jeez calm down
It's not an 'eye catcher', but the bike is in v.good condition and it was owned mostly by mature men. The last owner was 55 yo, he really didn't want to let it go. But he said, he has too many bikes, so time to sell has come.
Edit: I can say its quick, tried it on a private road of course.
Edit: I want to order bits for it, now I don't know CNC Tomok Black or Chrome? Shorties, black or titanium? Exhaust Beowulf or Scorpion, what indicators? Puig Screen and a tail tidy.

It is clean, it was looked after... the guy asked me "Will you look after it?". He really didn't want to sell it, but he got a new bike.
What indicators would you guys recommend?
I don't want to spend much for something that does same thing, that something else does costing twice as much.
I'm not selling it, I'm leaving it... I might visit him and go for a ride when I can.

Nice bike mate
I'd keep the indies and get clear or smoked lenses.
Also crash bungs?
Give it a full service (if it not already had it ), it's a great time to do it whilst your not riding it.
oil/oil filter
Air filter
Coolant change
Brake fluid change
Spark plug(s)
Pads
Check chain/sprockets
Check fork seals
New Exhausts
I'd rather do the above than spend money on cosmetic mods initially.
Just some food for thought
Cosmetics could be :
Brake lines (and safety )
Tail tidy
Rear hugger
Front fender extender
Renthal bars
Rear seat cowel
Adjustable levers
Radiator Guard

You forgot the most important upgrade for an SV - exhaust!
