Welcome to a lovely happy place on the web. The SV is a great first bike and you will love it. Just be careful, my partner keeps nicking mine!

Good luck with your tests.

:D

Welcome Jules! Whereabouts in this lovely country/world are you? There are regional sections, so you can find yours and say hello in there as well and meet some people to ride with :-)

'Tis a fab place this...you'll find it becomes a part of your life, no matter how hard you try to stop it ;-)

Re: newbie!!!
 

Welcome, welcome.

After riding a school bike the SV will be an enormous improvement (in everything except turning circle). But tell the o/h to take it easy at first, and if he decides to go off on a blast let him go. Ride at your own speed and don't feel you have to keep up.

Good luck with the test,

K.

hi all - thanks for the warm welcomes, im from guildford, surrey, england.
the o/h has already gone charging off so i let him go - he also has yamaha thunderace - and im on a battered old 125, lmao so there is no way in my wildest dreams i could keep up either - and considering it was first day on road as a biker, i was pooing myself!!! whats the problems with the sv and circles then?!?!?!

They melt....so you really must be ordained in the shiny downpipe club. All members get a free pair of sunglasses and a guide to using Autosol:p

but then after reading your post again, circles? I suppose you mean turning? Thats crap too, if its faired. Got more chance of turning my poofwaggon in three on my road!
