those 125 riders always amaze me how young and small they are like young bradley smith, shouldnt he be watching transformers and playing on his xbox i think you'll see lots more of him in the future.

My brothers mate has just got a CBR 600 F, he only passed his test a month ago, he wanted an SV, but got the CBR cheap.

It looks it really good condition, much better than a lot of SV's of a similar age and value I've seen, He certainly wasnt having any trouble with it on his way to Poole tonight and was keeping a good pace, considering his lack of experience, certainly looked easy enough for him to ride and manage.

My M reg CBR6 looked better and was put together better than my K6 SV - absolutely no doubt about it.
