Hi all,
Just joined the forum. My mussis bought me a naked SV650 (01) a few months ago, so I'm back biking after a nearly 20 years break.
I started biking in 76 on moped, and then graduating to Honda Superdream 400 (got through four of those) before finally settling on Suzuki 650 Katana.
When I met my wife, she wasn't keen on bikes and as the generator when south - I figured it was time for a change and gave to bike to a good home and took a car test.
Anyway fast forward to last year and as part of our "try everything before you die" policy, the missus went off to try for her CBT. She (literally) crashed and burned on a geared bike (via a convient wall) but a lady instructor talked her into trying an auto, and she was hooked.
She bought a honda 100, then passed her test and is now running around on a Peugot Satalist 250. Since she now loves biking so much, she bought me SV650 to keep her company on the roads.
I must say the SV650 is really fun, but it keeps scaring the living daylights out of me it is so fast :)
