New SV owner
 

hi all

i have just passed my test, and bought a blue 05 SV650S:smt110, had her just over a week now and loving every minute of it! i went to brands WSB on the second day of owning her, what a way to learn how it handles and a good confidence builder;)

this forums seems pretty lively, look forward to chatting to you all soon.

I love it!! I thought about getting a CBR600/R6/ZX-6R etc but I think I made the intelligent choice. The SV has excellent mid-range power without being over-whelming, but it'll still lift the front wheel under hard acceleration and spin the back in the wet. There's just enough excitement without being too much.

I've definately learned more in the last month or so than I did during my DAS. My only advice is get out on all road types and weather conditions where possible - it'll make you far less fearful in the event that you do get caught out in the rain, for example.

How are you finding it?

Not quite - take a look at the downpipe - however, by normal standards it is a very clean bike !! :)

Re: New SV owner
 

Welcome to the site and enjoy your SV, great you can do just about anything bike related on it, tour, track day, race, meets etc. A wise choice.
