Au revoir??
Soooooo after 5 years on the SV I said good bye to it today and have joined the Trumpet club!!
Bagged myself a lovely little '11 plate 675 Daytona! Am I now to be ostracised from the Org?? Or can I stay?

Re: Au revoir??

But yeah the colour drew me to it instantly, fell madly in last with it and then took it for a spin yesterday and fell in love! Is it possible to be a blue sheep of the flock Trev!? Haha

Re: Au revoir??
Are you sure that the bike in that picture is not a model and you have used forced perspective to make it look full sized?
Nice bike though, needs more silver to make it really pretty though. |

Au revoir??
Hahaha!! If only!
I do feel like a clown riding it, it's tiny!! I never thought anything short of a 125 would make the SV feel big but there you go! Sadly the weather didn't play ball today that was the only 5 mins of sunshine for me! If the weather picks up tomorrow I'll be heading out to stretch her legs and I'll get some more pics up! The only thing I think it's missing really is a seat cowl and crash bungs. Came with a lovely sounding arrow can. But any suggestions for prettying up are welcome Jayne! I'm slightly sadend to lose the throaty grumble and gargle of the twin, but it has its own voice which is nice, not quite IL4 scream.
