SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default No heroes

As I'm fairly new to this forum I would just like to say that it is a great site. Loads of info and friendly!
It's also great that it isn't full of 'heroes' who think they are Gods gift to riding.
Everyone seems to be well aware that they are not the best riders on the planet and don't go around taking the p*** out of newbies and people who know their limits.
Nice one everyone!!

Can I second that, a great forum to be a part of, much better than all the others I am a member of, very friendly and no real aggression. There are still debates and discussions but they proceed in a constructive and friendly way, everyone gets their say (if they want). Found it very helpful on a number of occasions.

Also no one seems to tire too much of the old tyre/fuel consumption/which exhaust posts too much!

I've noticed that too. I'm reasonably new, with a few posts, but always answered either sensibly or 'tongue in cheek'!

I have seen other forums were people get very sarcastic/nasty and that just makes you not bother with them.

Saying that, there has been a few hiccups and people have left recently due to some, but I suppose that's to be expected!

I still come back though, even to the detriment of normal work!

Hey Im a Super hero dont you know.

And yes it is a great forum isnt it? Of course we have the occasional bitching session, flouncer flouncing and someone who has thrown their toys out the pram over something fairly trivial... but it'd just be too boring without all thhat some days

i think most of us on here are sensible enough to know that regardless of how good we are or think we are as riders, we're here by the grace of God
