Hi guys and girls.
Going to Alton on Wedensday evening. Usually lots of different bikes there would be good to see a few of you peeps. I'll get there for about half seven 8, riding a white hornet 600 so come and say hi.

Hopefully see you there!

Dan

Each to their own mate. I find the Hornet more fun and easier to live with.

Well its not like I did it on purpose hun, I think the truck driver technically smashed the bike and me up, the only act I played was skidding along the tarmac :shock:

Yer got an srad 600 in the garage, fueling needs sorting (Which reminds me) but apart from that its all good

Got post code/directions for this place?

Will prob be there- take the A31 down to the main Alton Roundabout , turn right to Alton, keep following, to the centre of town, U'll see a couple of pubs opposite each other (names escape me) , and a road to the left. There's also a sign there for the station.

And that's pretty much it.

Thanks for posting up directions tricky.

And Si, you're idea of a wheelie is probably different to mine. In my book if the wheel come off the ground even by half an inch it's a wheelie! :wink: I've yet to learn the clutch method but I've found pillions work wonders for the wheelie! :P

I'll probably be there and hopefully with my first ever pillion. So if you see a fatish bloke in a blue jacket on a blue curvey (Y916) with a scared looking lady in a much too big for her leather jacket, that'll be me. Come and say hello.

I got there a little late so weren't many people left (8:30). I was on my white Hornet. Only saw a blue sv1000 curvy which was being ridden by a female, so not sure if it's anyone here. Anyway, a good run down and back!

27-07-06, 08:22 AM
Ah!... I think we left at 8:30...!

I thought they only made 1000 pointy's?
I was considering coming, but was just too tired hope to see you at the Anchor, but I'll be running late again.

Okay, erm so what did I see or were my eyes playing tricks on me?

Was it a 650 as I'm sure it had two pipes. Hmm.

Edit: Oh it might have been a TL1000s I guess.

Yeah, they exist. Or as someone said it may be a TL1000s although thay don't look anything like curvy SV anythings.

High level pipes?

DanAbnormal

Ah now i'm with you. I didn't realise that they only did a 650 curvy. Doh!

Must have been a TLthen, it went past pretty quick, was thumpy had high(ish) level pipes and was that Suzuki cobalt blue.

Exactly like that! But with shiny cans. :lol:

I think it looks quite a lot like an SV.
