Talking I passed!!!!

I PASSED

It was absolutely chucking it down just before i started, but as we left the test centre it cleared up for a while, then rained again, and stopped just at the end.

Been riding all day, and, my god the SV is a dream to ride compared to the ER5 i've been learning on, it actually scared me slightly when i accelerated for first time lol

Let the good times roll...

Missed you too, oops! Congrats on the pass, specially in the wet. Learned on an ER5 as well - bit of a difference on the SV. It's the torque I love - forty to bye, bye traffic in the blink of an eye!

cheers guys. your right about the feeling.

yeah, the low end torque is just ridiculous, i'm head over heals in love with it and how simple it is to overtake

it'll actually overtake quicker than a gixxer 600
