Default Finally, I own an SV

Meet my new beautiful steed-to-be, a Y reg Yellow S Curvy. She's lurrrvely Oh and note her already impeccable taste in music





Got her for a bargain too (which is lucky as I am now officially skint!). Didn't expect to get one so quickly so very happy.

She is to be converted into a naked (lucky I know a man who can eh? ) MY choice as although I love the look of her faired, I don't like the feel of it plus less stuff to damage should I drop her, less space to take up in the garage (which currently has 5 bikes and a mountain bike in it) and easier to move about at the bottom of our rather steep drive.

Tis just a shame I now have to spend a bikeless 2 months dreaming of riding her!

Oh and before I forget HUGE THANKS TO SVSTE

Nice one MYC! Shame it's a curvy, but at least you get more of them in Yellow

Conversion to a standard curvy, or are you doing some streetfighter headlights? Naked yoke and bars, or are you keeping the clip ons cafe racer stylee?

No not keeping clip ons. No idea on the headlight yet, will see what's available. I've only got a week to look at it lovingly, then I'm away for two months while YC fiddles with it, who knows what I will find when I get back! He'll have to email me pics as he goes along methinks...

Nice. It was a fair bet it wouldn't stay standard for long.
