Back on an SV...

i would definately recommend one, dont take any notice of all that 'widow maker' stuff though, they are'nt that bad at all.

Its more what the bikes are like in town that bothers me, when I sold my curvy sv last summer I toyed with vtr firestorm tls and a trx850 (although not quite the same league) and was put off the thou bikes due to the fuel thirst.

I think I need to have a go of a tls and see if its what I need, the noise will temp me enough
