Thumbs up a complament to my sv

my poor bike has been sitting for 3 months untoutched in the drive ,it not even a cover over her to stop the evil rain attacking her.
yet just now as a friend needs her to help fix his bike i walk out side ,dust of the key and begin thinking ,where is my jump pack, spare battery and cold start. so i put in the key and wait for the half hearted attemp sounds that come (as we all have heard at some point) from a curvy that doent want to play ball.
to my shock and amazment life, that beutiful sound that only a v twin can make, growling back at me without so much as a cough or splutter
i leave her running for 5 mins just listiening for any sign she's unhappy, but no she just purs away quite contently
so in surmation, i love my bike and feel bad for abandoning her, so let no one complain about sv's today as suzi has shown ,she may have been built to a buget but she still keeps kicking, try that with one of your f ing italian expencive peices of ****

Ah, bit of motorcycle psycology (sp).
I wonder if I pay my sv a compliment it might play ball and let me undo that bloody siezed rear caliper bolt so I can get on and change the brake pads for its mot. . . . goes off to whisper sweet nothings at the bike in hope.

Good to see that you've still got the bug - thought we might have lost you for a bit back there
