Oh right. What do you do?
I'll keep an eye out for you (pointy or curvy?). How are you finding the SV?

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

I work for an accountany firm - PKF

I have a 2000 curvy and I love it :smt054

When I first got on and started it up I freaked out a bit and thought I would never be able to handle it. But after 4 days already starting to feel more confident.

Its weird, but I feel alot safer and more stable on a bigger bike. I assumed it would be the opposite. My SV is much easier to ride at low speeds than my YBR. Plus having a decent headlight is nice now it gets dark early.

Another thing about having a new bike, everyone assumes its my man's bike. :hackedoff: When people first see us out and off the bikes they all say "Hey Jim - nice new bike" and they are suprised to find out its mine. Starting to p*** me off - us girls ride too! When we were both starting out, again, people always assumed I was his pillion, and were surprised to learn that I passed my CBT before him, bought my bike first, and got my full licence before he did!

In fact he is currently using my YBR (long story - his bike is crappy) so I have two motorbikes, and I'm female ;) (rant over.... :p).

Oh God, not another accountant :roll:

:p :laughat: I thought you had a curvy :D - wait til you try a decent headlight like a VFRHow to elate & disappoint a thousand men in 2 words :smt090



:lol:

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

lol I never said i was an accountant - just that I work for an accountancy firm ;)

And ok, maybe decent wasn't the right choice of words given my extensive experience of motorbikes (one YBR and a 10 year old SV), but my SV lights are a vast improvement on the YBR.

Anyway - any local people fancy a mini relaxed ride over the weekend? It would be a pretty chilled out thing, I'm still getting used to the SV, I'm not fussed if its raining a little. I had to get my bike restricted last Saturday in that evil weather and had a trial by err... water :p

Maybe Boxhill for a coffee then off somewhere else... maybe some of you know some nice roads? If no, I will just be Billy No Mates and go play by myself.

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

I'm only free on Sunday this weekend. Might come along if something is happening then. :)

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

yeah I noticed that ;)WooHoo a Guildford rideout :cheers:

T100thI - you some kind of trouble maker? It's usually nice and quiet round these parts ;)

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

A what?! :p

:lol:

Re: New Guildford SV rider
 

Sorry, I'll stop posting here then :rolleyes:

I'll be heading up to Boxhill on Sunday morning then, probably 10-11ish. If anyone want to join me feel free. If its raining a little - i'll still go, but if its chucking it down maybe not. There is only so much water my textiles will stop...

Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll hang around for you. I'll be fairly easy to spot - probably the only person there with a high vis jacket on (I know, I'm sooo uncool). And if you can't spot me just shout "Theres a red SV in the car park that has fallen over - whose is it" and watch me run to my bike :p
