Bh monday rideout? - SV650.org

20-08-13, 12:56 PM

If the weather isnt raining monday, anyone fancy a decent ride somewhere? Not sure on destinations or routes, but a good trip to the seaside or out into the country somewhere. Having not led a run before if anyone fancys leading one i would be happy to backmark, but if there are no takers i could try to organise something. Any interest?

Bloody amazing! Needs some all weather tyres as opposed to the supercorsas, got that booked for next week. Practically no rear brake, but other than that not alot to sort out really, ride is lovely. Need to implement more countersteering, trying to actually steer doesnt do alot.

I finish my first night shift at 0900 on the Monday and have to be back in work for 1730 latest for my second night shift.
So, I'm in but I may have to catch you up if starting early and leave the ride early to get back in time.

Haha. Both those things surprised me too when I rode an SRAD 750. Rear brake rubbish and found it really hard to corner! I thought that it couldn't be right. Yes, it's harder to tip in than the SV, but once there it's planted. You just need to consciously countersteer. In fact there is still a private video of my first ever ride on one hidden on youtube. I'll PM you the link for giggles and see if you can relate.

As for ride out, will confirm closer to the time.

Depends on which direction you head in. The coast and August BH do not normally make for good riding if the weather is great as every bugger heads that way.
