There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default Hello

Hello,

Joined up earlier today but have only just got chance to post. I've just put a deposit down on a 2005 SV650 for my girfriend, Gemma. It's only done 2500 miles and looks like it's never been out on damp roads, let alone in the rain! Apparently, it belonged to a lady in her 60's.

Anyway, I actually own and ride a Triumph Speed Triple 955i but used to own a bandit. The bandit was my first big bike and, if i had the money, i'd track it down and buy it back! I loved it.. it had renthal bars, LED tail lights and a straight through Scorpion exhaust - Sounded great. I've ridden for as long as i can remember and held my full licence since 2003. Gemma's held her bike licence for 12 months but passed on her 125 so is restricted for another 12 months. Just felt it was about time she got on a big bike

We've just got to wait for the 33bhp restrictor to be fitted to the SV before we can pick it up. Here are a few of photos i took with my phone when i went to have a look...
