SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Good grief...it's another noobie....

...but this time its me.

You lucky, lucky bunch.

Owned an old '92 NSR for nearly 2 years, but hardly rode it as its kept at my parents house (no garage at mine...yet).

Passed my DAS first time with 4 days left on my CBT...ahem. Why do some of us leave it so long?

Before I took any lessons I went through the list of bikes I wanted (based on looks alone in the first instance I might add - R6, GSX-R and ZX6) and ended up looking long and hard at the SV following one of many chats with my brother.

So after passing my test on 12th July I waited a sensible amount of time before bike shopping. I waited until the 14th. Test ride on the 18th and picked up my bike on Aug 1st. Its a pointy blue one.

I have used any and every excuse in the last 4 weeks to get out on two wheels. I have never looked at the sky so much and been utterly disheartened by big black clouds.

So here I am...tell me everthing I need to know and I promise not to boil your pet in rice pudding and sell it on eBay as a piece of modern art. Honest.

'ello

you've got 2 years to send off your test certificate to get your full licence, so don't wait until there are 4 days to go (like I did )

My quick and your quick may well be two entirely different speeds.

Just got my bike past its first 500 mile run in stage and opened the throttle. I nearly made a mess on the seat...

Hope thats fast enough or I may be in trouble...


My licence went as soon as I had all my other documentation sorted. Should be back in another week or so.

Welcome matey, good to see another rocker/metaller here! You into much of the metal scene in Stoke? Do you know a short git called Dan who is in Imindain and is from Stoke? I went there to see Vomit Remnants and Godless truth a while ago.

Thats about all I know about Stoke

I also have a blue pointy, welcome to the "fastest sv" club :P
