The return of the SV

mmmm, 35 mph behind a car on the A49 between Newton and Warrington, this is a 60 stretch why are they going 35 beeping mph!!! Hang on a minute, I'm not in the cage and am testing out the new purchase .... twist and gone ..... sweet ... bye bye car :p

Thanks to galaxystar for a good sale and thanks for dropping the bike off. My first ride after selling my silver pointy last June was just so much fun, god I have missed that feeling.

First impressions of the bike, well it feels nice, smoother than the pointy I had, maybe a touch slower on the acceleration but that may just be me getting back into the swing of it. The front brakes could do with a service though, they feel spongy, the back brakes feel really sharp which really shows up the difference but nothing that would stop me ridding it. There's an intermittent clanky rattle at idle/low revs, not sure what that is but maybe someone could point me in the right direction and other than that it feels great. As galaxystar said it has some marks on the right so if anyone has a yellow rear and front panel going that'll match let me know. I'll pop something in the wanted forum as well.

Thanks again galaxystar - Top Bloke!

so happy, and just as good, my leathers till fit so i haven't put on as much weight as I thought I had :smt033
