Default New bike pics

passed my test a few weeks back, been loving the sv ever since - mainly using it to commute which was fun today in all the rain and on weekends for a bit of fun

girlfriend hates it and thinks i will kill myself

mods so far : R&G bungs, scottoiler, tail tidy, fenda extenda, hugger, zero gravity DB screen - will get a new can next march ish ready for summer and planning to do a few track days next summer

yep thats a really good colour.
Do yourself a favour and get the can as soon as possible - you won't regret it. I got a Fuel can and can recommend them.

Always ride at 75% of what you think is your 100% and you should be ok. Take it easy out there and well done on a stonking bike. Looks great in that colour, cries for a touch of red somewhere though. Good platform for greatness (why can't we leave bikes alone like cagers?).

A nice can and I reckon it is complete!! .. I only like subtle mods!!

As a bit of tip - depending on how rapid you are likely to be - I'd recommended replacing the 020 tyres for something a bit more sporty before the trackday. You have plenty of time between now and when you expect to do one to wear them out on the road mind!!

Very nice, very clean.
Any chance you could post a pic showing how you've mounted the oil delivery pipe of the scottoiler? Mines ready to go on but can't seem to get a decent mounting point for the pipe.

Cheers.

I second what Blue says but say get the tyres as soon as funds allow and keep those as spares.

Do like the colour.

Regards
