Talking New Person

Hi I'm another new person to the site, so hello!

Well me bike is a SV650 Sport K6, in the blue candy colour its fully faired and looks awesome. Though I bought it this year after passing the test! So on a 07 plate.

Well I live in London and work here too (someone has too) hope to go for some ride outs soon! Got the first 600 mile service this week so will be ready to go come the w/end!

Anyone up for that? Though I will take my time scared myself yesterday by going fast into corner

We've all done it, just remember that the bike will take the corner if you let it and you'll be right.

Welcome

Y'ello, and welcome to the nuthouse.

The only tip my dad could give me, in his 35+ years of riding, was "if you go into a corner too fast, push on the inside handlebar"

So when I first went into a corner a bit too fast, I did just what he said. Suddenly, it wasnt too fast anymore and I made it out the other side! Countersteering is part of the secret of faster riding.

Happy riding

Matt
