first bike injury!

bike is still like new.....pushed bike through into garden felt a little twinge in my shoulder - thought nothing of it. Got up this morning in agony, visited doctor. Ripped the muscle round the shoulder blade! no riding for a week :-( But I do have some nice happy pills though!

D'oh! Unlucky mate. As Ophic says...or sit on it and move it about that way. Leg muscles are way stronger.

Re: first bike injury!

Well - I d've pushed the bike into the garden for the last two years and never had an issue. I only have to move it the length of the bike so it seems pointless starting it up or getting on it.

Yep it does shakes not vibrates in idle and below 3k revs but it turns and corners quicker than the sv ever did. As for engine issues none so far!
