Hi all

Just saying hello!

I have recently bought a 02 Curvy 19k on the clock in Red, couple of mods double bubble screen lill indicators.

Thanks

Yeah
Thats an old pic of it had some stuff done to it now
Definately the best bike i have had.
Need to scrub in the new tyres and brakes ready for a track day so if you fancy popping out on Saturday let me know (i won't be going fast as i have to take it easy for a few miles)
Got a pic of your bike?

Might do that not sure what is going on with work yet though :(
I don't have any with me, but I will post some soon!

Bought the SV as a stop gap, first big bike. But I am well impressed with it.

So you have an SV aswell?

Nope
But i know a Mr FG1 who has
He will show his face later on i am sure
The GSXR was my first big bike

Ah such a shame we nearly ended up with matching bikes! lol

Think the SV will be a good starting point, would love a gixxer soon though :)

How come your on the SV forum?

Welcome. I'm fairly new, too, and always up for a ride out. Just procrastinating leaving work at the moment. Waiting for the blasted rain to ease up before I ride back from Slough. Can't decide whether to go M4 (quicker but possibly wetter) or A4 through Maidenhead (slower and therefore maybe wetter over a longer period of time). Decisions, decisions.

Gimme a shout if you fancy a ride out; I'm only 10 miles away from Reading(other side of Henley).

Nice to meet some locals who love their bikes ;)

Good luck with the rain, I'm in London at the mo in a conference and I think it's dry here!

Welcome dude. I was a bit confused by your name - green SV. I was about to ask if you'd had it re-sprayed but then read your first post...red

Cheers
Phil

Hi Metalhead19 thanks for the welcome would be great to meet up with other riders. :)

Phil thanks too! I wish I had an interesting Sv like a green one! It's just my surname I'm afraid, not very inventive I know!

Ijanric glad u managed to dodge the wet ;)

Don't we have rules against people turning up to an SV meet on an SV?

If we don't, we sodding well should have.
