LF Advice on a Project/First Bike
Hey guys, I'm currently looking for my first bike and really like the sv650 from both style, reliability, and availability of parts. I saw a post on Marketplace for a really cheap 2000 sv650 that had some issues and would require a bit of work before being ridable. I haven't worked on bikes before but am pretty confident in my ability to with a book/videos and was wondering if this is something you guys would recommend. I like the idea of learning about the bike and being able to do the work on it myself (even if I found 1 ready to go) so the mechanic side isn't a drawback. I just want to know if this looks like a problem that could be cheap to fix like fuel lines/green connector or if it could potentially be a more expensive problem and wouldn't be worth the hassle on a 26 year old bike.
