Default What Bike did you have B4 the SV

Just curious to what bike everyone had before they got an SV
Here's what I had - Honda CB1 400


I wish I'd kept it as a second bike

My previous bike...Bigger, stronger and heavier...
Kawa GPZ1100 -95



...But i am faster round the corners on my SV

Before that i have had...
Suzuki DR800
BMW K100RS
Honda NTV650
Suzuki marauder 800
Yamaha RD350 YPVS
Honda VF1000F
Kawasaki H2
Husqvarna "Silver Arrow" 175cc

And a few 125cc´s


I must admit that it is the SV i like best, even if i am thinking of a BMW r1150GS or a Yamaha MT-01 as my next ride.

Before the SV...


Well a blandit for 6 days, which was murdered at a red light from behind

20 years of nothing

then Moto Martin CBX (Nearest to a honda I have ever owned)
GS850
GT 750B kettle (To learn to fall off at speed)
250 hustler (to learn on)


hmmm 5 Suzukis and a hybrid. I think the kettle was most fun
