Hi & welcome. You have done the right thing and upgrade from a Bandit to a SV, what year is it?

There is a wealth of information on this forum. Do what I do and have a good read / search. You'll find more than you bargained for.

I bet Saturday can't come quick enough. You'll have a blast on the SV. Be sure to report back on your first ride.

The SV im picking up is a 06 "k5 or k6" not quite sure which one, i have been looking on the forums for a good week now, since i started looking i fell in love with them, when i took it for a test ride i just had to have it, i will post my thoughts on it on saturday when i finally get to do some proper riding on it. Here is a photo of the machine.
