Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Hello

As seems to be courteous these days, hello. I'm Martin, I have a 2001 SV650S wot I bought in '03 as my first big bike. Over the years the passion in the relationship's faded, so I've tried to rekindle things by turning it into some kinda hybrid track / road bike - ie race fairing, no mirrors or headlights, but still fully road-kosher, MOT and all. Then it looked right plain, so it's been covered in some sticky vinyl to alleviate the dullness.

Anyway, to get back to the point at hand, hello again. Hope to meet up with some of you over the year(s), to re-jiggle my fizzle for a trusty, awfully neglected SV.

Martin

PS - Anyone selling a tasty shock for a curvy carby?

I subliminally put a "tasty" in your mind by asking for a "tasty" shock... You are all under my command...

Aye, agreed. I've not wanted to have to cut through the standard pipework, but have finally accepted it must happen, so have a brand new Scorpion Street Extreme waiting to go on.
