Hey

[forky]

Just thought I would say Hey!!

New owner of an 03 SV650 N as of next week, :cool: finally got rid of the turd I was riding before, thought I may be of use as I have experience with older bikes (but not fuel injected models). That's it really :)

Cheers nick.

heya, welcome to the mad house :D

PS: this should really be in the idle banter section, but i'm sure a mod will move it for you soon enough :-P

[forky]

Ah thanks for the welcome, oops guess I got carried away with all the threads and thought ill just put it here :D.

traded a virago 535 plus the £1400 for the SV.

15700 miles, full history, new rear tyre, new pads all round, nice condition + completely standard which usually means sensible owner, so i'm a happy chappy :).

Had no luck with bikes whatsoever, I have owned approx 8 in three years :confused: and problems with all.. but learnt my lesson, being a student was tough, spending peanuts on bikes and praying the right. :rolleyes:

just rode her back from bike shop (around 25 miles in rush hour :() Very happy with her but needs a good old clean, hopefully many happy miles :D

[Ed]

They didn't clean it at the shop????

I believe that people get too hung up about having a clean bike:D

[forky]

Nope, bike was bought in, as the guy new him, and left as was for 6 months or so. just has a bit of mud here and there nothing major. I ride all year round, so it's going to get dirty but with all new things I want it to be perfect lol
