SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

I'm voting Stephanie. The bike in the avatar is a Yamaha YZF-R 125, no self respecting bloke would buy one of those

Anyway, Steph, hurry up and answer the question, we NEEED to know!

Btw... welcome to the .org, please take a seat while the Bear prepares himself for your arrival.

Greetings. Good luck with the Mod 2 from another "mature" rider. I had to take my Mod 1 twice (long story, crash involved, got it all off my chest on the NSR125 forum so I won't bore you here) so I can sympathise. I've never met a Steve or Stephen who shortened it to Steph so I'm voting Stephanie too. Should we start a poll?

Hello Youngster,

Touring on a 125 is hardcore. Did you get far? I once did Glasgow to the Arran TT (any time I'm there.) many moons ago. Felt like an EPIC expeditionary journey!

Good luck with the test and the SV is a top choice. (So much so Suzuki brought it back after discontinuing it for a year or so.)


Have fun,
Andy. aged 40 and 5weeks.
