Default Hi, I'm new...

... and so is my bike. I'm not quite a SV650 owner yet but i will be on Saturday. The dealer just told me that my brandnew black naked SV650 is ready and waiting but I have to wait until Saturday because I'm working and can't get away.
I'm pretty sure the bike is the right one for me. The test ride on the demo was just great.
This is a very nice forum and I will look in regularly.

Hi
Thanks for the welcome. My new Suzi is nakid. It looks quite different to the faired GS500 I've had so far, when you look down on it. And the tank is huge. I'm sure I'll get used to that quickly.

YUP.......... nice black frame aswell

get a fenda extenda fitted (£20) it just makes the front mudgaurd a bit longer, this will stop water getting into the front plug

next is crash bungs, if you were to drop the bike these should take most of the impact.


theres loads more you can do, but IMO these are the 1st things to be done

Better get training too. IMO nekkids give you a neck like Arnie!! I love them but wouldn't want to do long distance on one. However a girlie on a nekkid is super cool

Couldn't agree more.
