Flogged my 03 K3 in 2012. Got a Triumph Speedmaster now. Happy as a bag full of very happy things.

2000 - 2004 SV650
2004 - 2009 SV1000
2009 - 2013 Sprint 1050
2013 - now Explorer 1200

Would still have a 650 as a second bike if I had the room in the garage.

Yep, still have the 2000 curvy bought in March 2010. Used most days and have no intention of parting with it.

DJ secretly wants a Triumph, but he would never tell Marilyn the SV that!

This was taken just after I passed my test in 2010 when she was restricted to 33BHP. These days she is full power and I love even more now. I have tried other bikes, but nothing feels as comfortable, as fun or as reliable as my precious Sylvie.

I've just returned to the fold, my 'new to me' bike is a 08 SV650S. It's my 6th SV but first pointy. I forgot how incredibly slow they are (compared to the Hornet that I sold) but it's still enjoyable none the less. Particularly with the dual Laser exhaust system.
