View Full Version : Whoop, Just Passed my Test & First Go on an SV
Evening all,
Passed my Mod 2 yesterday afternoon and finally got to take the SV that has been sat in my shed for a couple of months out. It's awesome, I know I've only got the GS500s I was learning on to compare it to but it made me smile so much. It's got loads of grunt and the induction noise is amazing, though it is a bit heavier around the corners than the GSs :eek:
Hope the snow melts so I can take it out again over the weekend.
Anyway just wanted to say hi,
Cheers,
Pete

Hi Fade/Pete :D
Congrats on passing your test.
Not a Robert Jordan fan by any chance, are you?

welcome along pete - the next two steps are veeery important..
1. Add your location to your profile details so people know where you are
2. Say hi in your relevant local regional section and see when the next rideout is scheduled for.. I went to my first one 2 years ago in january and I've made some amazing friends as a result - great roads, great riders (apart from manxmatt, he's a right spanner) and great people...

We're just down the road from you in Rugby, Fade.
Get yourself into the Madlanders section. A few youngsters in there.
Well done on passing your test and having an SV. If it's a curvy in Grand Candy Blue, then you have excellent taste.:D

Well done on passing mate. Good feeling isn't it. I passed in mid November (a few years ago) and just had to go and ride the same day. bloody cold, but great feeling.
Enjoy the SV - Mine was exactly the same as yours.
