You haven't met Rigor and his sense of humor then? :lol:

Think Rigor's comment was meant tongue in cheek. Seems ludicrous that the SV should be in a higher tax bracket than the Gixxer (or my CBR):D

Tongue in cheek? What's that? This is new to me... :)

I'm not that bothered. They have to put a boundary somewhere, and 600cc seems logical no?

It does indeed. I was going to see if I could find out how much C02/Km the Gixxer / SV / CBR makes, to see what bands we should be taxed in, but got bored :D

That's the way I read it too. Another smoke and mirrors budget. :mad:

It is now 64 pounds for the SV (upper band). See

Don't remember what it was, probably 60.
