boy that was fly by.

[Saint Matt]

Haha, it wasn't really that fast, the R6 was much faster. I had a go of it and my god it was quick, felt totally different to the sv though. I thought "this isnt as fast as I thought it would be" then looked at the speedo going 80, 90, 100, 110, 120 in what felt like about 5 seconds lol. Very friendly bike, not what I was expecting at all!

The R6 sounds poo doesn't it :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Saint Matt]

Haha, I personally think it sounds awesome, shame SV's never sound right on videos. For me V twins win below about 8k, when thrashed they sound ****. IL4s over that.

[kwak zzr]

sv sounds sooo cool!! r6 sounds like a mini moto. :wink:

[Saint Matt]

While I was waiting for kev (r6) to come by, an SP2 came past and by christ that thing was loud, sounded like a gp bike.

Matt is your gang called the Henry Ford Club? Any bike you like as long as it is blue?!(In Henry's case with the model T Ford it was black of course)

I am a bit dissapointed in the pics....you have a lot to live up to after the Magic Roundabout video! :wink: :P

[Saint Matt]

Afraid my confidence took a serious bashing when I highsided, shan't be doing any of that again. So frustrating after a bad crash then a 3 month break. One part of you says "I know this corner, I can take it x fast and scrape knee" and the other part says "Don't even try it you ****ing loon, what the hell are you thinking". I get proper tense in the wet now, used to be good :(
