Default Any advice welcome

Hi Everyone,

Finally after nearly three years of waiting I've got the dosh to get myself a bike. I decided about two years ago that my first bike would be a SV. I got my theory in two weeks and then all being well taking my Test.
Any advice about what to look for when buying the bike or tips for my test would be well appreciated..

Thanks

Richard

& plenty of mirror checks.............& make sure the examiner can see you doing them, move head not just your eyes, & dont lock up the back brake on emergency stop
