Default Suppose I had best introduce myself properly now...

...Since today I put a deposit on a K6 SV650S

I didn't mean to, I went to Halfords for some bits to fix my dads fiat and thought I might as-well pop into J&S for a look, doesn't cost anything to look....

So I had a sit on a few bikes, Fazer, Thundercat, CBR, and of course the SV and it was the SV that felt right... Then the salesman started it up and gave it a few revs...




The wheel strips are coming off, I think they look kinda cool but are all over the place on the front... I need that noise in my life




Oh yes, Introduction... I'm Matt from Doncaster and I am a bus driver/ex mechanic, soon to be very happy man if I pass the MOD 2 on friday

Default Re: Suppose I had best introduce myself properly now...

Thanks for the welcomes, Is it wrong that I already have a shopping list forming before Ive even set a collection date for it? Crash bungs and a fender extender so far. It's fair to say I was grinning like a total retard when I left that place, but couldnt help looking at exhausts, im thinking this one might not be appreciated at 4am when im on earlys, maybe somone on here would want a stubby Scorpion?


I had to smile to myself before I even saw this SV, I know Ducati dont have the best reputation for reliability but one in thier showroom was marking its spot nicely with black oil...
