Luckypants' new ride

mmmmm ..... Honda!

It looks really lovely ..... look forward to hopefully seeing it in the flesh. Am glad you are sorted with the bike, there is always an upside to everything ..... sometimes you just need to look hard for it

I could fancy that bike ..... is it very much taller then the sv?

Ha! an excuse to go out to the garage and sit on me new steed!

Seat seems about same height as curvey, 32in inside leg and feet are comfortably flat on the floor with knees slightly flexed.

Won't be any where near as fast as your CBR, less power and heavier.

Very handsome, mascaline looking bike all the same. I had a great day on the cbr on saturday ... managed to pick up some brommies, lost in matlock, who didnt know the area or where they wanted to go! i was just having a spin on my own so I offered to show them our wonderful roads around here ...... they loved it!

The cbr stood its ground amongst gsxr 1000, r1, 1200 bandit, I was very pleased. Obviously I had the upper hand because I know the roads, so it was an even playing field

It is a little tall for me, stalled it (after turning down the idle speed, serves me right for trying to be clever!) turning right out of a naughty junction ..... fair sh*t myself when my feet werent nicely planted on the ground! Held it together, but left me a little shaken!

New bike TC, don't sweat it. You will get used to it and it's differences to the SV. I'll be taking it easy for a few weeks yet.

Nice mate, one of the bikes I fancy TBH...
