Doing my ibt when i get back from my honeymoon end of august and looking at getting a restricted sv 650. Im 28 and would have messed about on 125s when i was younger but want to get licence now. The carb models are going for decent money or would i be better off paying extra few quid for a fuel injected model? Thanks
mate i wold go for the newer model if i could afford it - so fuel injected for me. and SV 650 is twin beast - i like them a lot. you can find "03" for no money - i mean cheap.

Just bought a carbed SV-S for the SO myself, the bike being in good condition is more important than whether carbed or injected. I got a mint 02 bike, 9k miles on it, for 1900.
I wouldn't attach any extra value to an injected one, tbh..Ode To The Motorist

a lot of new/better features were added to bike after the newer model came on market in 03 mate. but either way its a solid bike, also for few more e you could get 2003 injected beast i am talking about 2k-2,2k budget.
9k miles is nothing for that bike. it should go through 50k+m with gentle owner.
.....as she's coming back to bikes after nearly 10 years off the road, we'd only be splitting atoms buying a newer one. I fully expect her to drop it at least once :cool:
...And, being a bit cheaper, it freed up some €€'s for insurance, training (I made her do it), lowered suspension, full front-back service and span new tyres. As she only spins on it for a few hours a week, this bike could easily outlive me.
Oh, and it came with a lovely Carbon Co pipe on it too. Very Ducati-ish.....sound :P But without the trauma

Thanks for the replies lads. Looking forward to getting back doing some proper riding and the sv 650 really is appealing to me so hopefully after the ibt I'll go shopping. Herself isn't giving me too much earache bout it and had to laugh at her lookin at the pink shark helmets when I picked up some safety gear few weeks ago
