Hello all, my name is marc from the west country (bristol) and new to this stuff so thought i'd better get the intros out of the way. I will be buying my first SV hopefully this weekend, a 650s (2002). I also knock about on a GT550 and i have a custom GN250 which i built for a bit of fun.... just waiting to build up a few quid to get meself sorted with the SV. cheers all M

Hello from the Sunny (Muddy!) shore of Weston. It is always nice to welcome new members into the SV fold. Sadly, many of the members here have been replaced by Body Snatchers who are slowly turning this place into a Triumph owners club, so be careful and don't stray onto the moors... That's where they get you! :rolleyes:

Go and check out the South West region section of the forum (http://forums.sv650.org/forumdisplay.php?f=121) too, we have a few cool things going on and some lovely people in there too.

Best wishes
:D

Well, got my SV today .... piccies to follow. Bit of history with it, all of the old MOT's and the exhause nuts and studs in the front cyclinder looks like they were made from cream cheese, hey ho its a 11 year old bike cross that bridge when i need to. Brought it home (27 miles from where i bought it) and needless to say feels ok rides well and handles nice.
