Bought me SV in March 08.
I went new cos' I was intending to keep it for a few years, and new = no risk of bike having been owned by someone with zero cash for maintanence or fiddling fingers......
Now I am not so sure about keeping the SV and therefore the depreciation =
Honda Blackbird is top of my wish list at the moment

- a s/h one (it's a Honda!) unless Honda bring out a revised version next year.......
