Great choice of motorcycle :).

Those pics remind me that mine could really do with a wash!

[paiste]

Nice. Looks in great condition. How many miles?

[Harman]

I think it has 29k on it, its 2000 Sv650s

I passed my test on friday just got to get it insured MOT'd, Taxed and restricted now!

Restriction thing is ******** a rediculous amount of money!!

[mister c]

Very nice :) right shape as well.
Bit of Autoglym on the downpipe would complete it ;)

[Geodude]

Nice tidy looking curvy.

[dizzyblonde]

ooooooo see the nice shiny shiny......and that big fugly brown minging downpipe...get it autosol'd!

[Harman]

its on the list ha! how much is a new one you think?

[radicalry00]

You prob don't need a new one. Mine was like that before a bit of elbow grease.

[Harman]

Get some washers made, probably cost you a tenner.

[Bluefish]

I reckon that's the best looking curvy i have ever seen ;) don't crash it :D

[Harman]

I got some washers on the way now for 20 quid,

And thankyou blurfishman!

[Binky]

That looks **** hot. Really nice example by the looks of it.

[daveangel]

Great looking curvy Harman.

[tom-k6]

really tidy looking bike, the first pic looks like the bike is liquid, really nice glossy black

[curvy custard]

or 500grit wet and dry.

It's actually white. He'd just added another fresh coat of Marmite.

[dizzyblonde]

or 500grit wet and dry.

240, 400, 800, 1200 in that order. Followed by a nice rub down with AUTOSOL on FINE wire wool then another polish with it on a clean cloth.;)

its special marmite!!

[Harman]

i got insurance today which is bonus but my bike failed its MOT because the front brake is grabbing been trying to do it tonight but its such a pain!

hopefully the restrictors will arrive tomorrow so i can fit them and fix the brakes :(

[hardhat_harry]

Sounds like front calipers need a service

[Harman]

yup! thats what i started tonight and finishing tomorrow!

[Harman]

so my mum has gone out for the day so me and dad decide its a bit cold outside...

http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e51/harman1990/photo.jpg

trying to sort the brakes and restrict the bike!

[tom-k6]

bike in the kitchen, thats what i like to see.

*insurance paperwork* "where will the bike be kept overnight?" "right by the cooker and dinner table in the kitchen"

[Geodude]

Hehe like your thinking ;) i once worked on my carbs in the front room infront of the telly but oops stunk the house out with petrol fumes, but it was better than my usual work space heh

[dizzyblonde]

LOL I remember that pic Geodude, from when you first joined here!


Anyway, Harman, don't tell yer mum, but the best place to dry out calipers after giving them a good scrub.....is in her oven, middle shelf, baking tray, low heat ;)

[missyburd]

oh dear, I see Dizzy's claimed another poor soul for the polishysparkle club....it's ok now Harman while you're not able to ride the bike on the road yet but once you get your pass cert, stop the polishing and use the time more wisely i.e. riding the thing :-D

Unless of course you've already passed in which case enough already! :-D Good luck with the next MOT.

[tom-k6]

[Geodude]

I seem to recall a certain MissYC being rather pleased at her shiny bike when she'd lovingly polished it after her crash. Polishing is good, it hides all the manky muck:p

i don't remember that, i was more pleased the t-cut had managed to get most of the scratches out, thinking I was selling it on then lol.

and hiding all the manky muck? surely if you're good enough at what you're doing there is no muck to be hidden? :-P

[Harman]

it does need a good clean up after the last 2 day shouldnt of gone out in the rain :) im going to pollish the muck haha (Joke)
