Unhappy An obituary (don't worry, it's only for a bike)

I collect the CBR tomorrow so I've slung the SV at the back of my apartment's bin store untill it gets inspected. Don't mind admitting there was abit of a lump in my throat as I shut the door on it.

20,900 miles, 7 trackdays, 6 tyres, 6 laps of the Nurburgring, more £s spent on mods and servicing than I care to add up, my first big crash (at Cadwell), my first big crash into something (a taxi), my first (if a bit pathetic) wheelies and my first knee down.

Goodbye SV, take your 'Ring sticker into the next life with you as a badge of honour.



Have I gone soft?
