Default Re: The next rideout......

i went out on sunday and did the ride we were meant to do on saturday. started about about 11:00 and the roads were fine. Fish hill is in the shade and so I wasn't able to go at it completely flat out as I wasn't sure about some of the surface, but on the whole it seemed very grippy.

I have also fallen back in love with the SV, the ZZR just feels like a barge, despite being faster on paper. SV does feel cheap though. damn nick for selling his ninja, he's awoken my bike buying urge from hibernation again!

EDIT - although i havent even looked at my bank balance in months so i may have to stick with the SV for a bit longer.

Sorry dude. it was a bit of a last minute decision, plus i popped in to see my folks on the way - free sunday lunch is always a bonus.

You're not furthering your own argument.
