Hi all, just a quick one to say hi. Im not sure if the 1k's are welcome here as its a 650 site but seems to be the only sv site i could find to join n chat that looked good!

Anyway, hi, im sean 28 from sunbury, middlesex. Had the sv for about a month and a bit now and loving it!! Bike came with a few nice mods and ive done a few already (will list below and post a pic)
Often like popping over to boxhill for a tasty rykas burger and a rideout - any excuse to get out on the bike really. Was there 2 sundays ago and the day was lovely - and packed out!!!

Anyway the bike, it came with:
Renthals
2x Blue Flame cans
Bellypan
Tail tidy
Braided coolant hoses (soon to be replaced with samcos!)

I then fitted some heated grips (i commute on it)
Did the TRE mod and adjusted the TPS properly

More stuff will happen but gotta save up again now lol. Any other suggestions of mods that suit the bike or cheap fixes/mods like the TRE will be great!

See ya soon guys! Maybe at a meet some time?!

Heres a pic

It's okay, we welcome everyone.

You and Mark_h can sit happily in a corner mumbling to each other while the rest of us discuss our triumphs.

Wait, what bike is this site supposed to be for again?

Howdy.

I want to do the TRE mod on mine but not sure I'm confident enough. Did you do it yourself? How difficult was it?

Hi mate, yeah did it myself. Was a piece of ****!! I wanted to buy a resistor off ebay but for 2 quid i got a handful of them (could do others if requested). A bit of patience and some electrical tools and there you go! Best mod ive done for pennys!! It likes a first gear wheelie now!

Hello from just across the river.
Get yourself onto the GM or SM sections as there are always a good few rideouts in the area
