Devon newbie
Hi folks.
Plymouth based newbie here. Just bought myself a '53 plate S model with a little over 11k miles in silver with lower fairings, other than that all standard. Twas a bargain. Been riding for about 13 years and actually have had a naked pointy in the past, bought it new in 2005 and kept it for around 4 years....traded up as I thought there was better out there.........I was wrong. So, long story short....another 4 years and 3 bikes later i've gone full circle back to the charming SV (other than now i'm giving the faired model a go!). Well happy, pick it up on saturday...can't wait. Look forward to getting to know you guys and picking your brains when necessary. Cheers Ryan |

Re: Devon newbie
Love my SV. I ride it much more than my bigger bikes
Perfect for Devon roads, often do a loop from Newton > totnes > kingsbridge > plymouth (Jaspers!) > up over Dartmoor > back round to Newton.

Re: Devon newbie
Hello from a fellow Janner, haven't got out as much as I would have liked over the past couple years but aim to change that this year!

Re: Devon newbie
Cheers guys.
Pick the beast up tomorrow....already spent some money on an evotech tail tidy (by the way I got the last one and they are discontinuing SV tail tidies!)...looking at an exhaust to let her breath...quite like the MIVV exhaust. Had cheap ones in the past and I think you get what you pay for. |
