My new bike.

1 Attachment(s)

I posted on here a few weeks ago, asking advice on a 2nd bike as well as the SV and I was looking at a D600 or CBR, well i'm pleased to say, i went with my heart and picked up this little beauty last week!

She's my first sports bike, and all i can say is WOW!

I'm taking advantage of the great weather at the moment and using it to commute on, before she gets tucked away for the winter. I must say, its not as comfortable as the SV, but it's certainly not uncomfortable, not problem with wrist ache etc...

I didnt want one.

The guy I bought mine from had the union nose cone in his garage but I dont like them.

The union looks crap on a red bike anyway.

Your riding it all wrong then ;)

Once you get used to it youll forget all about the sv.

Whats the mileage and what did you pay for it? (if you dont mind)

I dunno i still love the SV, I have a K5 naked, so 2 totally different bikes, but your right, I've taken the daytona to work for the last 7 days, and every day it just gets better and better!!

No i don't mind you asking. Mileage is 8k, ftsh. 2 owners from new. Think i got a little end of season bargain on this one. I paid £2200 for it, the guy had just got a new job and needed a car desperately and needed it gone asap. It's it very good nic too, the only marks are on the seat hump, few little scratches where you catch your boot as you get off.

Nice chap too, he was pretty local to me, we've spoke since I bought it, and we'll be going out for a ride next summer when he gets himself another bike.

Re: My new bike.

You got a good deal there mate.
Look after it as its not a bike you see everyday :)
Youll have to get used to people gawping at it if you leave it anywhere though !
