Talking Another New Rider

Hey guys I'm another new rider....

Well passed the cbt in May and got a 125, rode around for a while covering 2000 miles, bought my SV before I took the test saw it saw in the bike shop knew it would be mine! Didn't need any sales pitch to make me sign!

Finally passed the DAS in August took a while ended up in hospital in July was stuck on the sofa for the summer it was my worst summer ever!

Oh my bike Blue SV 650 Sport and I love my bike, I got crash bungs and an alarm on it which works great. My buddy tapped the bike on the seat cowl it went off! Alarms do work, I caught someone messing with my 125 which also alammed they set it off and ran off....probally best for them don't like scum messing with bikes!

So I now have my SV and almost all my gear, so I'm very happy! It would be great to meet up and go for a ride when are you guys are around. I work shifts so I'm not always around at w/ends but having week days off has its advatages it really does empty roads and stores its awesome!

Hey Guys,

Where about in Soho do you guys meet up, and at what time?

Not sure if I want to bring my bike down, the westend is a nightmare to drive/ride around, been there done it and hated it. I'll probally take the tube the down, for me it really isn't that far!

Let me know, I should be able to make Friday this week.

i've only been riding a year and i started going 2 soho on my bike from the start. riding in london is such a good learning curve i think. made me soooo much more aware of everything around me!!
