Default SV Newbie

Greetings everyone,
Thought i had better register after lurking for several weeks reading bits of information.
Ive had a 125 (the yamaha YZF-R125) for just over a year and decided its time for a bigger bike, picking up a pristine totally stock K2 SV650 on saturday, cant wait to get out for a ride!

If anyone in the north west reads this im a regular up at Rivington Barn, and a bunch of the other local meetup places, hope to see some of you there!

SC? Whats one of those then?

Welcome aboard, tis a great place to be and i'm sure there are lenty up your way for rideouts when you'e ready. Be sure to po into your regional section and say hi there to and get to know the locals. Just dont feed em after midnight cos you know what happens then

Want me to change your thread title to SV for you btw?

Hey Avenger....welcome to the forum! El Saxo rides out to Rivington Barn quite regularly I think. I'll text him and get him to say hi.....he would eventually anyway, but he's not on here everyday.

Hope you enjoy your new bike

Oh, and Spidey is an actual real bonafide superhero by the way. Just so you know

Where are you located? Based on that you can check out that regions section of the forum and see if anything is planned....

The ride will depend on who is there and how they ride. Ours for example are typically pretty brisk with a mixture of roads. We don't normally use a drop off system, unless someone gets left behind.
