Default Hi...

Just checking in - bought an SV650 yesterday ready for when I pass my test.

Tests are booked for 8th for Mod 1 and 15th for Mod 2. Pretty nervous about them to be honest.

The bike is a 2001 yellow one, unfaired. Done about 15k miles. Got it cheap as the last lady owner dropped it on her drive so its got a small dent in the tank and scuff near the seat. Otherwise seems to be a good bike.

Anyway, looking forward to getting on a 'proper' bike

David
