The mileage doesn't matter, I put almost 52K on my '02.
Get your friend to lower his/her price on the 03. If not, get the 06. |

Did you have to do anything major to your SV other than basic maintenance? |

However, after about 18K mine developed a rough vibration at 5K rpm, under hard accel. It vibrated the whole bike. Tried doing valve adj, carb syncs, new chains/sprockets.......Never improved, so I just lived with it. But it was irritating. Might have been an imbalanced clutch basket. |

Receipts honey bun. I say got '06. If it doesnt work out you can always haul ass on it to his place. Stop a few blocks away. Open up the tank cap, stick a shirt down it, light it, then haul ass and jump off at a high rate of speed, letting it crash into his place. I crack myself up sometimes. |
