If I were you I'd go further, get rid of the SV and the car, get a sports bike if you want one and then get a pushbike to commute to work on. That way all your miles on your motorbike will be fun ones and you'll get a bit fitter into the bargain. Also you'll save on tax and insurance by not running a 2nd bike.

This works especially well if like me your commute to work is short, mine is 2.1 miles.
What; are you on commison form the pedal powerd liberation front or something??? Just because you are wierd and decide to use human power, and clog up the roads with your slow miandering, light jumping, lycra clad holliganism doesnt mean we all should

Well, after a bit of research and a lot of thought and consideration I think I've narrowed it down to the fact that I need a GSXR750.



This will entail selling the car AND the SV to fund such a beast but such is life!

As soon as the car sells there may well be a cheeky little Black Curvy popping up in the For Sale section in case anyone's interested?
