Default Spotted an SV in Cullercoats was it anyone from the ORG?

I was putting more miles on my bike before (8000rpm is much more fun than 5500) when I spotted Spotted an SV in Cullercoats heading to tynemouth was it anyone from the ORG?


It sounded awesome by the way!

That'd be me (if it was the silvery blue and you were on the turquoise/blue). Drop me a pm if you fancy a bimble some time - any pace.

Nice exhaust mate. I spent 4 hours just rediscovering the roads round the coast. I'm definitely getting into this 8000 rpm limit i now have. Have you been over to the lakes on yours yet?

yeah but not for a while. Might head up around kielder this weekend though, I've got a route that's meant to be ace- including a forest road or two! I was going nice and slow when I saw you - you should hear it with some gas

wasn't me unfortunately. There doesn't seem many around unfortunately so I'm keen to get some of us together at some point. Beer or bike How you finding the SV so far? Limited to 8000 can be so satisfying. 4500-8000 rpm in 4th just sounds gorgeous Real lazy acceleration

So that's three SV's in quite a small area. Do we have a north east chapter set up yet?

I'm very impressed with my bike to be honest. The finish is terrible like but as long as its kept clean I think it should last. I was initially a little dissapointed especially with the handling but i've increased pre load by one click at both ends (not sure what this does) and it seems to handle nicely now both solo and with a pillion.

The brakes have really started to bed in nicely and the motor is just great especially along the beehive! I'm fitting my tail tidy today and have a few other mods on the way.

oh - and the beehive I love! It's been known for me to do 80 miles in a session on that road alone (sad I know!)
