Default Thought you guys deserved an update!

I know it all ended on a bad note last time I was here, I think at the time I was so frustrated and feared it and you guys tried ya best with me and looking back I apprecaited the help and i have now forgotten about the erm ........ well some of the more to the point comments!

Well little update for you that are interested! http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.p...t=ruth&page=22

with regards to Dizzyblondes comment 2 post down. Sorry but you've gotta eat ya flip flops!

Yup pretty much rode the bike every weekend i can! Recently got back from a 700 mile trip to Newcastle to see some friends!

Since I have last been on here I have only dropped/placed her down once more!

I'm loving every bloody minute of it! Still struggling slight at slow speeds and cornering, but whilst up in newcastle my friends made me go round and round a quiet roundabout to help me get my speed up and help me do some U turns as well!

So can we let by gones be by gones (or whatever the saying is) and start over!




Oh and don't worry about the space between the rear wheel and the number plate. think that is just the angle of the pic, theres plenty of room.

You've got my vote, I just love someone who is definitely in the minority yet sticks to what they believe in, regardless of how it turns out. Even happier you're enjoying your bike more, just make sure it stays that way!

Ooh the Leicester firebrand is back

Welcome back Ruth. I'm glad that you persevered, I like people who do what they say they are going to do. And especially people who defy their sternest critics

She is something of a cynic the dizzy one...

Glad to hear you are having fun. Let us know when the pegs start scraping

Let this be the absolute proof that there is NO point to owning a cruiser!

I do worry that there is so little travel between the bottom yoke and the fork stanchions.
