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.

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

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.

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

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!
