Title: moving on
Post by: ferda on January 07, 2019, 02:46:40 PM
After spending the last year on my GS, I am moving on from this easy riding bike. At the Toronto motorcycle show, I got a great deal on an 2018 SV 650. Thank you for all those who helped me out previously. Now what to do with a non working gs? :icon_eek: :dunno_black:

Sick, I think a SV650 is my next bike. Albeit, it'll be an older model.

The SV650S is my next bike shortly.
I had one arranged with a used bike dealer for my 500F plus some cash in their direction. But my GS now isn't running so I've lost out on that one.
Plenty more out there though.
It's a good step up. 😀

Beautiful bike, looks great in grey. Ive never ridden an SV, but I have a few friends that rave about them.

Personally, after moving up to a 1050, I missed the light, quick handling of the GS.  I need to put mine back together...
