Xmas meet - Tuesday 16th - Shire Horse

[Messie]

And the other question is

Are you still interested in my R6?? Was hoping you were

Sally, unfortunately, the insurance on an R6 is a lot dearer than it is on the SV for me. Realistically, I can't justify the R6 and tbh I like the V twin of the SV. As I am never going to push the SV to its limits then the R6 would be wasted on me.......

Sorry hun. Looks like I am not going to be the one who relieves you of it.

Only minor I know but, hell, I suppose I am a tart when it comes to shiny things.

Too right whats the point of getting a K8 when you can have a K9. Sounds like they were trying to pull a fast one!

Its going to be well stealthy in black! Has it got a black frame too?

Yep, still got a black frame.
However, why Suzuki still have silver footpegs is beyond me. I am thinking of getting all the pegs powder coated so that will be pretty much everything black except the engine......

Oh, and I have a Scorpion Street Extreme in carbon in the post....

Probably because the powder coating may wear off in about 5 mins. I remember my brand new SV's paintwork on the tank was dull after 2 weeks of riding. I guess I should have got a tank protector but never had the trouble with other bikes paint wearing so quick. Suzuki are not known for their quality finish. Still, your SV was about the only one I've ever seen where I thought it looked quite smart. 'Tis a shame but I'm sure you'll do up you're next bike.
