Just got back from my first ride and i can not stop grinning. The bike handles really well (not that iv ridden much to compare it to).

I was a bit nervous at the start after hearing people saying the engine braking can be bad on it but i didnt have any problems with it.

I think im going to have some dinner and head out for another ride

Please remember this is my first bike so i have next to nothing experence of riding on my own.

I can assure you i will make up for it

Thanks Lee

My first ride on the SV (the day I passed my DAS) was in pretty heavy traffic, and it was bloody horrendous... Bad enough without night riding on a brand new bike, not a good idea. So you did a smart thing, I reckon.
