Nice. Did you sell the cop car too? Still in PA (looks like a Sheetz.)

Haha, thanks! Well it needs tires and I want to level out the front. honestly aside of a little audio work that may be all I do, it's too nice to really dump a lot of money into or really beat off road. (or maybe im getting old?)
Yeah about a month or two ago thankfully. I tried to downsize from that and my old runner, now I have a new runner, an 01 sentra and a 03 sv1000s :gun4: lol

Great looking rig, OP! What are you gonna start out doing to her?
I go looking at the 4th Gen gallery every once in awhile just because I like the look (not as much as the Tacomas), but I can't bring myself to trade my 5spd V6 for an automatic V8. Love my manual transmission too much, and I don't have the skills to drop in a V8 like some others (Singtoe).

I use to run track days with a guy that rode a SV1000. They're some pretty cool bikes, he was fast as hell on that thing.

Thanks! Tires first, maybe small things later. I drove some tacomas and this may sound weird but there isnt enough footroom in the drivers side foot well for me, its super uncomfortable, my toes hit the firewall. this runner isnt really like that.
I love it, ive had 8 or 9 bikes tihs was my favorite. real comfortable lots of torque everywhere and sounds different than a high strung 4 cyl
thanks thanks. i actually was carless and asked my uncle to use his 01 sentra (has 306k miles on it) and he sold it to me for a couple bucks. however now theres something ungodly wrong with the driver side suspension and im yet to figure it out. wheel bearing maybe? it vibrates like mad over 20mph and you can hear a noise with the rotation of the wheel, like a metal on hard plastic clicking or something. anyway... haha

Post some pictures of the SV1000s!! Thats the bike Im looking at upgrading to. Right now I have a 2000 sv650. Such a good bike. Very useful torque, super light, so easy to corner. Im light, but I cant keep the tire down in 1st and 2nd. Just a not quite enough power. What are your thoughts about the 1000? Ive heard it doesnt corner near as well as the smaller and lighter 650
What did you ride?

Fugly, no. Different, yes. I'd take a 4gen over 98% of what is out there today.
At least the OP won't have to be concerned with any LBJ failures in the future.

ill never leave <3 lol thanks
i never rode the 650, it may be a heavier bike but the motor is horizontally mounted in line with the wheels, good weight distribution, feels light to me haha. ride one i guarantee youll trade up.
it grew on me. its like the average girl next door with huge tits because it rides really nice and is comfy inside
haha yep or timing belts
I support this, I love this one more than the last. only because 98% of the time ill use it for daily duty im on paved roads. ill miss the third gen if i ever decide to take it to rausch
i may level the front but im just going to stick with a street tire with maybe a slightly aggressive tread. more all season than all terrain i think.I liked my 4th gen a lot but never did like it as much as my 3rd gen. Probably because it cost 5 times as much.
They still look good with a mild lift and some beefy tires, though. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Congratulations....!
I was trying to make a deal a week ago with a guy 100 miles from me on a 2007 sport 4wd, 100k miles, sunroof, cloth, 1 owner, got him down to $14,100 but I just couldn't make it to where he was in time, he was trading it in on a new car and the car dealer offered him $14k, he said if I could make it there by 3pm (it was 1pm when I was talking to him) I could have it for 14,1. Oh well....
I'm trying to make a deal on a 2011 sr5, I've got the bug as well and its tough to shake, even after having my 1997 since new......
Good luck with the new rig.....
