SV and V Strom Owners

[marvinsc]

looking at a second gen, 2006. Thanks for the info

Exactly what I have, I am at 24,000 miles and it is as strong as ever.

If you want a second set of eyes to check it out, I am currently located in Warren MI, so I could come over pretty easily.
PM me if you want.

Thanks Koolaid, oddly enough. Your from indy and that is where I'm headed tomorrow to look at it. Might have to stop at the cheesecake factory.

I'm currently in the process of purchasing a 2006 V-Strom. I will post pics When I get it. Here is a pic of it at the dealer.

Nice pics, but I thought a V-Strom was supposed to be a DS bike, all those with the exception of Brian's, which sorta kinda passes, look like full on road bikes????

They have their own classification, Adventure bikes.

I have a 05 SV1k

It's a good bike, love the torque. Handling is good, could be better especailly after the suspension gets a few miles on it.

Works good on the track.



and as a sport touring bike.

my 04 dl1000, 10k miles.

Impressive "ammo cans" right there!

Bought an '01 SV650 naked yesterday. No pictures yet.

So VERY different from my old GR. Technology has apparently moved on since the early '80's. Who knew?

I expect you will like it after you get used to it.

I believe you are correct, Sir, I believe you are correct.

Looks great! Love the color.

Thought I'd get a blue first gen, but then I saw this one. This is an '01 with 9700 miles, Buell footpegs, Progressive springs, R6 throttle, Kawasaki 636 shock. Pretty much as I want to set it up.
