Not really. Just hard to find people who are willing to sell them for less than they paid for them. A lot of owners think they are made of gold (especially if they add a pipe and computer). A Honda dealership I went to a year ago had 3 in crates and one Nicky Hayden on the showroom floor still. I forgot what they wanted for them but not cheap.

I've ridden a V-strom 1000 which has a similar motor and it had plenty of pop. No experience on the SV1000 but I do love them when they have some nice dual pipes on the back.
