This here lovely SV650s....
Just took the bike out. Not far, just to y Trallwng/Welshpool and back, so about a 25 mile round trip.
Bike's not been started for about 4 weeks, and I never thought to hook up a battery tender, so there wasn't quite enough in the battery to turn the engine over fast enough to start the bike. On with the charger for 45 minutes and away she went.
And how nice it was to ride the old girl again. These bikes are an absolute joy to ride. I'm reminded of this every time I go out on it.
I'll try not to leave it so long before I ride again next time....
Must change that rear tyre though.
