difficult decision
difficult decision
Well this is a life changibg decision, bigger than whether to get married or divorced!! 10times bigger than whether to put the dog out of its misery
Do I continue on with my sv in the hope that nothing serious breaks and continue to replace everything with components that Suzuki should have done or do I cut my loss and buy a ho da, probably a cbr600f or vfr!

Re: difficult decision
The problem is I love my sv but it does need a load of attention which would be nice if I had money and time. I need a bike that can be cleaned and loved but won't break down or oxidize In to nothing!!
Re: difficult decision
Get it sorted into a sellable condition, flog it and get a Honda less prone to decomposing in one season.
It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Re: difficult decision
On the other hand, transforming the rotting hulk to TT spec might be fun...or why not drop a Storm lump into your frame?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Re: difficult decision
more modern kwacka's have good build quality, I don't think i'd ever own a Suzuki if i'm honest. I had a vfr800, a little soulless compared to the storm, but an extremely capable bike, wouldn't know where to start working on a V4 tho...
cbr600 is even more soulless but a nice handling bike.

Re: difficult decision
Its not the motor on the SV its the frame that rots like all Suzuki's. BTW point 2 in the first post is about to happen & its painful
Re: difficult decision
No reason to work on a V4...No CCT's to worry about, upgrade the RR, stick a pipe on it and ride it, job done.agentpineapple wrote:more modern kwacka's have good build quality, I don't think i'd ever own a Suzuki if i'm honest.
