Default SV1000 handling.

Well from my unwanted vantage point at the side of the Ronda road yesterday,(due to Lolita not wanting to play) I was able to watch all many of bikes coming both up and down a particular section of nice bends. The most impressive was a dude on a blue SV1000.Before he came in to sight I heard a strange noise, then he appeared and on every bend,left or right he was getting his knee down! Well impressed! The noise obviously was his sliders!

I personally think the SV thou is much under-rated.

I really like the look of Elmerfud's new black nekkid 650 K5. That as a 1000 would tempt me into the wunnerful world of hire purchase.....

If/when I get down to Spain, I'd be happy to swap a go on my SV1000s with your 749
