3k for an 03 with under 20k miles seems about right for that area.

Considering you could buy brand new SV's for only 6K almost every year they were in production, I think 3K for an 8 year old one is overpriced.

The SVS was like $6750 way back in 03.......but that was MSRP. It was easy to get them for $6K through large dealers with an internet salesperson.

Went to see the bike today after work. It's at a tiny little boutique dealer close to me. I didnt even know it was there, but I think they are newish. They had a nice selection of bikes for how small they were. A nice 50th Anny R1, a nice 954, and a beautiful green 07 zx6r. And the usual selection of gixxers and F4i's. Pretty good prices overall. Even had a purpose built Harley drag bike. Price tag was like 30 grand.

The SV was is good condition, but not excellent. Has a scuff on the right headlight (might buff out), a hairline crack on the left side of the fairing, and the grab rail was a bit torn up. But other than that the motor, frame, and suspension looked really clean. They wanted like $200 more than they show online, but im going to talk them down anyway.

Need to sell the Honda now......

Shows how out of the loop I am.. I didn't know Suzuki had discontinued the SV.

3k isn't too bad...I would pay 2500 for an 03...tho this does have fuel injection.

My 06 YZF600r had the best carbs...most of time it didn't need the choke and it would run w/o hesitation after a 10s warmup. My EX500s I had were a different story.
