My first bike
Hi guys and girls!
I have just brought a 09 plate restricted sv650s Pick it up on the 5th of Jan (after it has had the restricter fitted) CANT WAIT! Haha My profile pic is me sat on it in the shop My question is where is the best place in the Tamworth area to meet new bike mates? I don't know a soul who owns a bike... Sad ino... Also has anyone any experience on the restricted SV? Your thoughts? Cheers, Matt |

Re: My first bike
Very reliable, very easy to ride, you should have fun!
Make sure you get some crash bungs on that shiny 09 plate. |

Welcome! It's a nice bike to ride restricted. You getting an ecu or washers? I'm sure there will be someone on here nearby.

Re: My first bike
Thanks! I sort of just left it with the guys at the garage to sort out as my knowledge is minimal. ECU rings a bell though |

That's fecking beautiful. Mines a naked one and I'm restricted. Not had a chance to properly go out on it but from what I have ridden its an immense bike.. Have a look in the regional area on this forum for any nearby sv'ers

Re: My first bike
Cheers Lew, that was exactly what I thought when I walked into the shop! Saw it sparkling in the corner and had to buy it! I won't be able to compare it to anything as the only bike I've risen is a 125 which I rented to do my test on so I'll take your word for it no I havnt seen the regional area part of the site? I'll have a nosey now...

Re: My first bike
Cheers Gary! "for a pointy"? What else?
They're both beautiful bikes I must say. Lew, I'm sure it'll be pokier than the gs and the bandit. From what I've read these sv's take to restriction very well? |
