Met my sv's first owner!
Parked up at work this morning, guys waiting outside the shop for it to open, looks at my bike, looks at me, walks Round my bike and smiles and Goes "I used to own this bike, had her from new!"
Got chatting, found it he sold her to a dealer in daventry, who then sold her to the guy i got her from (in york). He Sold her to buy a zx9, which he then had to sell 6mths later and he wished he had never sold her! Found out abit more of her history and alos that he had tried to learn to wheelie on her..

might have to pop by then, i'm incredibly bored stuck in the house all day over christmas! i'm actually in a position where i could come on the bike, seeing as it's parked up here, but i'll probably resort to the car as it's not the heights of summer any more rofl :P
