Sheene Machine!! - SV650.org

Rode my K5 650s for the last time yesterday, dropped it off at esb bolton to pick up my new K5 SV1000s.

1 word, WOW! alot more power there, finding a dont need to change gear as much, but the weight difference is there but overall its alot smoother ride, even though its *cough*restricted*cough*

Took out the baffles for the first time today and nearly **** myself when i fired it up! I think the Yoshi cans may be too loud?

Anyhoo here you go!

+1 that does look tasty, what is your insurance like and how old are you if you don't mind me asking

20 year old, insurance is £680 TPFT and for the 650 it was £400 TPFT

i may have seen my next bike, sell it to me NOW!

i was told that i wouldn't be able to get insurance on a sv1000

insurance is via MCE, was ready to pay £844 but had to get a re-quote and came out at £680, both times was over the phone. Got breakdown cover and legal cover in it aswell, oh and covered for pillons aswell.
