Re: Gravel

It could be worse, in Thornhill near Hope it appears a disgruntled resident has been spreading drawing pins all other the road, I presume they have a dislike of cyclists.

Re: Gravel

I did rain rather a lot here in Derbyshire on Saturday, it never really stopped raining here all day.

Re: SV650 2018 Review

Wow. I'm now wondering how accurate my comment below is

'3.83 gallon tank, official mpg 72.43, so a potential 277 miles to a tank. A slight error there TMF I fear.'

Re: sv650 AL7 tick after sparkplugs change

The 1/4 turn is really for used plugs, I'd say new ones need at least another 1/4 turn if not a bit more.

Re: AL7 tyre recommendations for large mileage?

Road 5's have replaced the PR4's. I've seen people rate PR3's higher than the PR4's too.

Re: A reminder of summer.

Certainly distinctive, do I get bonus points for naming it ? Clogwynygarreg, clog wyny garreg, give me a few years and I might even remember how to pronounce it every now and again. :oops:

I need to get back out to Wales with the bike too. Don't think I've ever been on that road.

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

Here's the comfy seat I'm used to, although the ride of the bike diminishes the comfort somewhat.

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

That looks superb, I take it that it is very comfortable?



Yes cycling shorts are made for cycling on a bicycle saddle, a motorcycle seat is nothing like a saddle so no surprise that it made it...

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

I really like the blue wheels, I guess they'll be difficult to keep looking clean compared to black ones. I bet a blue tank would look well with them.
I never asked what colours they had available...

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

Perhaps the wrong thread, but seeing as there are no photos I thought why not.
I've just had an afternoon with a new SV. I was originally just looking for a small 125 for knocking about on. As I've...

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

Thank you Seeker. I'm just about to go to the dealers and try one all being well, it's been a while since I rode a motorbike so I might try a VanVan 200 first.

Is there such a thing as too hot...

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.

That'll do me, I may try one tomorrow then. My current bike only has around 11 hp, and only does about 90 mpg.

I really like the sound of that, just one question are those trip computer figures or have you done the maths?

Yes my dealer has confirmed they don't have the SAIS fitted. :(

Re: Picked up my new SV yesterday.
