As always I try make fun and cheap bikes.
This one was sad looking first gen SV650 who I bought for 500€.
But as I like V twins I had to give a try.

One big problem at the SV is front suspension and brakes, as I had the original front end from a Ducati collecting dust in my basement I thought this es the way to go (and it was)
Some cheap Speedo’s and headlight from AliExpress

It would take more than a glance to realise it wasnt a monster, really good job!

Do you usually get more than what you put into it when you sell?
