Looks pretty good to me!! Its just what I need to get back into riding after being away and its great to meet like minded (crazy) people! Ive already had help finding a good bike fettler down in the south! Would be great to get to some of your rideouts!

Heres the toy (I guess it would be rude not to introduce him):



Thinking of editing and fettling when I finally get some money.... the joys of being a student!

Welcome. If you're in Surrey then you won't be far from some of the GM crowd. I'm sure there will be a lot of people making the the most of the weather so check out the GM section for any ride outs.

Nice bike, just needs an antisocial extra loud end can on it

Default Quick hello from a newbie!!

That's a nice looking bike. If you want some inspiration from a very good looking naked bike, have a look at FG1's

Hi all!

An extra loud can sounds like a plan to me. An old mate of mine from Surrey had a blue naked sv with the loudest f***ing can you've heard, I couldn't hear myself think when I was riding behind him!

I'm going to try and get on a ride out sometime at the beginning of June if there's one going. Have to spend some quality time with the rents this month haha! Save me a space!!

So I was thinking a rear hugger and belly pan for it as well. Thoughts?

First thing you need is a fenda extenda for the front hugger to keep the water out. Either that or keep one of your lady products to shove down the front spark plug hole and absorb the water when it starts running on one cylinder.

Come to the AR instead then we're Brum-ier (not to be confused with brummier) and faster.

Possibly, if you're dyslexic enough to start spelling it with a T and continue very badly for. There on in.
