Buy a cheap old banger for starters,ride it, drop it and make all your mistakes on it.Wont cost you a fortune,then get a nice shiny one in about a year and look after it.

You're all wrong. What the guy needs is an '03 Honda Hornet in blue, 14k miles, recently serviced and MOTed, vgc, going for about £1650 ;-)

More powerful, faster and better-built than any SV650 :thumbsup:

not that i am one to comment any more, being that i no longer own an SV, but curvey all the way, pointys are ok, but only naked IMO.

welcome tho, and have fun and ride safe





(oh and post a pic once you have your bike wont you)





oh and once more......definatly keep half an eye on reeder! (by the way reeder, your bike looks nice mate, about the only way that i would have a pointy is exactly like that!)
