Well, as per title. I had my first ride on an SV650, one of the nice looking ones (curvy).
Couldn't find the keys to the BlackBird this morning because I'd put them "somewhere safe" on Sunday, I had a bit of travelling around to do today and one site has terrible car parking so needed to be a bike really so took the newly rebuilt Squirrell_Hunter2 to work.
Was strange at first, like sitting on a CBR400, it felt tiny, not helped by him having raised foot pegs, clutch is quite heavy because of the HD clutch springs put in it but that was fine.
I got a text from Squirrell saying when I got to work "What's it like riding a real bike"
I replied "FANTASTIC, but I couldn't find the keys so I took the SV"
But to be honest, I LOVED it. It just fills you with confidence. I can't wait until it's broken in proper because I'm going to borrow it again and 'give it some large like'
I might even be swayed, I'd quite like one for commuting and scratching
