Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello !!

I'm new to the forum and to motorcycling (passed my test in April).

This is all due to me having a mid life crisis at 40 and now at 41 I've just bought my first bike - A Suzuki SV650 K4 Naked on a 2004/54 with 5K miles on it.

Loving the bike which I bought from my old boss, hes had it from new and its been a garage queen !!!
He was gutted to find I'd got it wet twice in my first weekend of ownership, but what could I do i needed to ride it !!!

I've just posted on the wanted forum as I'm looking for a tail tidy, hugger and seat cowl for it.

I'm taking it pretty easy familiarising myself with the bike and bike riding !!!
Although once a bit more confident and experienced hope to see some of you out and about maybe.

Cheers Andy

Andy, howdo. I'm liking the Blue Flame exhaust. Are you a northern m******y or a southern f***y? The middle being the Watford Gap.

SVs sound the best!

Hi, Welcome from a fellow newbie. Had my 06 for just under 2 weeks and love it. The only thing frustrating is everyone keeps saying its a perfect beginers bike! I have been riding for 21 years and owned all manner of machines and the SV is the smallest bike I have owned in about 10 years! The fun I get from riding it is huge!
