SV650.org - SV650 & Gladius 650 Forum



Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Where else are you going to put it? on your seat or tank so that when there's a decent gust of wind it ends up falling off. The only other thing is the floor.

Well obviously leave it on your head but if you do feel the need to remove it that's where I used to leave it or over my wing mirror/handle bar so the wind won't blow it off.

Hang it on the mirror, or put it on your gloves. Or hook your arm through it. It's not brain surgery.
