Re: how many org'ers have moved onto something else?

still got a curvy SV. It was my first bike and I bought it brand new 8 years ago. DD bought me my dream bike a few years ago and once its passed it MOT on Friday I will be riding that all the time. Also in the garage is the Benelli which I will never ride as I cant reach the ground and a TS 50. Will keep the SV for my daughter. Oh also a couple of mini motos in garage, I can reach the ground on them lol

Mine through not having the cash to get anything new more than anything! I still have my SV 9 years on. However, as much as i would love a Triumph Tiger, i still think that for a while i would miss the traffic crunching capabilities of the SV, which through london, is still second to none!

I know most people on here have owned an sv and still do but on the rideouts I've noticed other bikes creeping in.
I was just wondering what the ratio is sv to others.

Bike 1 - cagiva Planet 125 (bless!)
Bike 2 - SV650s curvy - Write off
Bike 3 - SV650s Pointy - Stolen
Bike 4 - SV650s Pointy - Stolen
- Due to cost and getting sick of thefts of bike went for:
Bike 5 - 1990 Triumph Trident 750 - Write Off
Bike 6 - BMW K1300 GT SE - Fingers Crossed =p.
Seriously considering getting another cheap SV as a sporty backup when funds allow.

SV to SV to CBR added SV sold CBR sold SV to CBR Trackbike, possibly to a Pointy or a Blade, but that will be next year :D

I'm a closet pointy fan :smt106

I love the B**by Bike, despite its little quirks.

Does it still come with the standard wall stand? Or does it own a sidestand now :shock:?

Still got an SV.

In bits to get sorted, subframe paint and new fork internals. Another warped disc. Possible convert from clip-ons to h/bars to aid the girlie (not my wheelies of course. Cough.) too.

Enjoying being back using my gsx14 everyday. Overkill.:cool:
