Re: Newbie with naked curvy
33k is not high miles!! mine had over 60k (a 52 plate curvy (the best shape!)) on it before I had to sell it a couple of months ago! the engines will see 100k on them with little problem as long as they're looked after properly...
stop by the soho section and come out one Friday for a meet, we should be getting more active as the weather warms a bit.

Re: Newbie with naked curvy
That's good news then! I do tend to look after my bikes & as I don't commute all year now
it's got half a chance of staying that way |

Re: Newbie with naked curvy
Yes, curvy is the way to go.
Check the oil regularly and the motor will give you a long life.
