I have been on here for 8 years. Didnt say heloo when the new site was launched

Edit: Ok just wandered back on the old site and the oldest post i could find of mine (in my former name) was 07 06 2001

I have just fitted a Twin outlet oval coloured titanium can to my blue svs. I can highly recomend this can. The blue of the can(its graduated, blue through gold to titanium) matches the bike. It sounds great, looks fantastic. When will the smiling stop? My cheeks are starting to hurt! Well worth the ?225 and the hassle fitting it(my own stupid fault not the system).

Now i need to upgrade the brakes, starting with pads(this philosophy worked on my car so i am going down the same route). Can anyone recomend better pads than stock. Some that give a better feel.

Cheers

Ian

Oh how things change! If i knew then what i do now!!

Hi, newbie question.

Im looking to buy an SV650S K4 latest model. I've already found out the servicing, price etc and have decided to go for a nice Blue one (wanted the Bronze but dont do them new ). I've got all the normal information thats made me want to get the bike, but now im just after the more gritty details..

Performance, smoothness to ride, what you lot have had them upto on your "private test tracks" etc. Any faults anyone has been getting that u've had done under warrenty etc etc..

For me its going to be a commuter bike to work, but something I can use to go on mayday runs, Isle of Man, weekend toy too. Im sure i'll add extras like rear cans, belly pan etc etc. My other toy is a 2.0 16v Vauxhall Corsa, its my show car, doesn't get driven much.





What more funny is seeing the older members usernames and wondering where some have gone. I ended up buying a Black Curvey K2 and not the blue one. Never went to the Isle of Man on it either, or even buy a new rear exhaust

I didnt say hello when I joined, I must have left my manners in the toilet when I came to this wonderful site

You know you're on probabtion for the first year anyway right? If you're not humerous enough or man enough to be on here you're out.


That rule was applied a year and a day after i had joined thank god

I searched for my first post and the software simply said "you post to much for me to go trawling thru, now please go away"
