Default 1st ride

picked up my sv650 on monday but had to get home as wife was going to work.
so got to go out last night for the 1st proper ride and may i add what a smile it bought to my face ( just need to get used to the engine braking ) and the need for constant throttle on curves.
but now looking forward to a happy summer of riding.

Nice one, gorgeous out there tonight, just in from 119 miles myself.

Stick you location in you profile.

Cheers Mark.

Some good roads going down to Rye, thats the usual popular rideout.

Also your close to the marshes so lots of flat roads and 90 degree bends
