I thought that too... But I havnt rode the SV since I got the falco. No need. Falco does it all just it does it all better.

Indeed. Its also faster to fill... better setup

Its not that bad though, itll do over 160 miles before the idiot light easy. Last fill I did was 9L and that had got me about 105 miles. So thats about 50MPG.

Just get over it mate.. you tried your hardest and still failed miserably. But hey, it's the taking part that counts, eh?
And you're right - I don't go round talking to geese

In the last month haved been lucky enough to test drive: gsxr600k4, cbr600rrk8(in hanspree colours), 08 hornet in white with gold forks, 06 bandit 650 and a cbr929rr fireblade. After about 20 mins of nervousness/respect on each, my naughty button turns on and I feel a compulsion to find out how fast it'll go. Thought I was normal!

I take 15 mins getting used to a bike, 20 mins chucking it round a and b roads, 10 mins on a dual carriage way and 15 mins in town. Gives me a good idea of what the bike's like and how I'll get on with it.
