New To Me Bike; Added To Stable!

[PADEROLIS]

Picked up a 2003 Suzuki SV650 naked to play on the track with. I initially didn't care if the bike I bought had a title (as long as it wasn't stolen) because well, it's for the track! However the SV came with a clean title so I thought why not register it? I'm finding it to be a very fun and comfortable commuter, and although it only has 2 cylinders, it's torquey so it moves pretty well! I know it's not very fast at all but it feels very light and nimble.
I replaced the OEM shock with one from a GSXR 1000, and I've read the GSXR front end swap is a very popular and recommended mod. Maybe in the future when funds allow! I plan on tracking it Apr.9th. I bought it to mainly have fun with some of my street riding buddies who have been doing track days too lately, so I don't plan to go too crazy with mods!

Are you taking her to the Speedway or a different track? I enjoyed Omslaw's SV1000 on the track, until ground, sky, ground, sky, ground, sky... LOL The SVs are a great time! Enjoy!

I'm taking it to the track in Pahrump Nv. It's called Spring Mountain.

Nice ride. I never thought having more than one bike to choose from was this fun, but I've also added another bike to the garage and is super fun having options depending how I feel.

Exactly; I like being able to have a choice of what bike to take out! And now I can do a few rides with my buddy who had to sell his KLR 650 last year because of family issues, he cosigned for my first Busa when I bought it new in 07. He's a very responsible and laid back rider, so if ,God forbid, anything happens, it won't be because he's doing anything reckless! We plan on taking the bikes out this Saturday!
