Cheers guys Relax relax relax lol. I think once I've started my 18 hours tuition (from 19th may onwards) I'll be a little bit more confident. Bit fed up with hanging around, just wanna get on with it and get it done now... oh well, I've never been a guiness man but good things come to those who...

Whoop! Whoop! 2 minors. One for balance at the traffic lights (was being a smart **** trying to keep my feet up as I thought they were gonna change to green a bit quicker, ended up putting my right foot down). Other was for missing a right shoulder check just before I turned into a side street. Apart from that "outstanding riding" from the examiner.

I have a confession to make though... Last sunday I went to buy some textile pants from Jordans Bikes at Birstall in west yorkshire. They just so happened to have an sv650s sat in the showroom, so I wondered over and had a quick sit on it. Bloody awful riding position - although this is probably mainly down to me being 6ft 2 and 17 stone. It felt really narrow and odd.

Nearby was a honda cbf600s which I had also sat on, searched around in the net for some info on it, and put a deposit down on tuesday. Hope the org can forgive me! I think once I've had a bit more experience on the road I'll probably be able to handle a sportier riding position. If there's ever any meets which aren't restricted to SV's I'll tag along

thanks for all the support too! PT6^
