Default This time next week I'll have a brace....

Of SV's
Not only will I have Custard, my trusty 1999 650 lovely yellow curvy, but we have another joining the family. I haven't thought of a name yet but will

Welcome to my SV1000s, slightly the worst for wear, but roadworthy, T&T till September. I pick her up next Saturday. Happy Days

That looks like it has a very soft lowside. What cans are you going to put on it?

Wow £750, even I could have got away with that!

Private or Ebay?

Lol. Bought it privately. I was only looking to see what sort of money they were going for & found this on the SV Portal. The guy is still using it as his daily transport so have had to wait 3 weeks before I could pick it up. He has bought a car now, so doesnt need the bike. Seeing as the Triumph has given me so much grief over the past 6 months I am thinking of putting it up for sale (now I've got all of the problems sorted). & it is going through my head to put Custard on track seeing as I've sold my FZR.
My son told me not to as I would sit & cry the 1st time I came off.... He has got a point
