I've defected.....does that mean I'm banned now?

Guys......confession time.........I've sold the SV..........and bought an ER6-F.

I know I should probably hold my head in shame in front of the holy ones but to be honest I'm chuffed to bits!.

Got a crackin deal on the trade in on my (very battered) SV and I love the ER. Loverly loverly ride and the upright riding position is so much better for my ageing wrists.

I just hope it doesn't mean I've got to go away now cause I really like it here even if I don't post a lot. It's a source of great amusement.!

Nev.

I think people SHOULD try a variety of different bikes, its the only way to form a rounded opinion of what is 'good' and what it is you want from a bike (it's exactly the same with women!! ) ... anyhoo, no gripes here for you making that decision ...

But it seems a bit strange for people to post on an SV forum that don't have SVs ...

I've currently got an er6-f as well. Agree its a great bike. Get that lump of a cat removed and fit an arrow. I promise you wont regret it.

You do realise young Nev that as I write many a ORG peep is sticking pins in a Nev like manequin? Soon your eyes will become red and itchy and your hair will all fall out. You will be forever doomed to speak with a blubber and salivate in all female company for no apparent reason.
















But apart from all of that, enjoy your new toy matey.

Nah, you can stay....if you update your avatar pic so we know the truth about you that is

There is a fair amount of people on here who don't ride an SV.. Most have had an SV at some point but it's a good forum which is why so many stay here when they change bike. I've been on both Honda and Kwak forums but still come on here as it's a good community

Exactly, why should you disown your friends (Sv orger's) when you change your bike...seems odd to me...

I have made a few good friends directly as a result of this forum who i chat to on the phone, and meet as well as talk to via the forums...I wouldnt consider not logging on here if I changed my SV for another bike...

Glad you are happy with the new steed matey, and stick around!

I'm bound to change my bike sooner or later but I'm never leaving the Org.

Never I tells you!

There you go! Changed the avatar. It's a really crap picture I took in the shop yesterday. It was only taken to show to the mrs when I took her out for lunch yesterday to beg her if I could get it..........er.............I mean to say "look what I've bought Mrs and you ain't gonna change things".

She liked her lunch and it worked lol.

I really like it here and have got some really good advice about bikes and other stuff here. It's cheered me up no end sometimes so I'm glad I can stay.

Pedrosa people have been sticking pins in me for years lol so all the hair is already gone.

One of the reasons I changed was because the riding position on my dear old SV was killing me.

I'm moving from NI to the North East in 2 weeks time so the SV would have been very uncomfortable to ride over.

On that note - I'll be riding the ER from Stranraer over to the Newcastle area. Anything to watch out for on my journey that you guys can warn me of?
