Had a go on a 33bhp curvy

And it was HORRIBLE.
Took Wideboys Curvy out for a spin yesterday and it was absolutly horrid.
Not the bike of course ,but the power that it put out.How do you lot put up with it for 2 yrs.
I kept waiting ...and waiting ...and waiting for the power to kick in but it just didnt .
And to make it worse he kept coming past on mine and waving.
I cant ride on one for a long distance (dodgy arm) but it felt sooo good to have a blast(bimble) on the old jelly mould

When its all you've known, its alot.

But yea, I wouldnt go back now. I'm starting to think that my SV isnt quite enough now as full power...I'd like a nice tourqey 1000cc twin

I remember telling you that's how you'd feel. Hungry for more.

I have to say though, I "rode" a naked SV today (well, moved it into the back garden & then back out later), full power version as far as I know, and that was a horrid feeling. There's just nothing in front of you, and the front end feels so light!!

You soon get used to any power bike you have.......when I first got the 600rr I thought there was no way I could ever use it all and feel comfortable, or that I would ever feel the need for a little bit more......quite fancy a HRC blade now though

Bandits are the same.Found the curvy much harder round town

The Sv650 is my first bike really, and had it for a week before getting it nuted to a kinder egg standard, and at first I was going down the dual carriage way screaming behind my helmet, then when restricted was like... hmmm
The change is dramatic with being restricted! Even to us new riders

cant wait to pull them out, 7 months to go

Had a go on a cbr600rr today and i'm regretting it
