Default Just picked up my sv :)

YAY just got my first ever big bike.

Soooo happy. ill get a photo up soon. but YAY. Also holy **** ive scared myself as its sooo bloody quick! Just setting off i managed to accidentally wheely it into my nuts!!! Brought a tear to my eye i can tell ya. Infront of a pub as well. Soo embarrassed. The throttle is like really sensitive just setting off im struggling to feather it tbh and also in like 3-4th it maks the bike surge a bit. Im guessing its just because im inexperienced.



FECKING ACE THO. YAY



still grinning

Enjoy the bike, V Twins are more jerky on the throttle than IL4's, as for pulling away, learn to slip the clutch for a smoother response.
Kep it rubber side down.
