Yes hello people,
As my signiature says I'll get up again and do that I am but it means I'm joining the enemy......

......yes thats right, I've bought another bike! but its an sv650s


I know I feel sooo terrible for it but it was £500 buck!!!! 8O
It has very light crash damage, my mate came off it and got the shop to provide an insurance repair quote to scare his insurers and it was declare an economic write off. it actually only needs a brake lever an foot peg 8) but has some minor scuffing...... Got a customer service job with Carphone warehouse which I start on Jan 23.....
So a few weeks pottering inside the confines of my garage and I should be put scaring grannies and entranced drivers YAY! :twisted:

And when the summer approaches I can sell up for 2K+ an buy a Storm, I seem to see them EVERYWHERE now now I've bought a bloody Lego bike.....
Ah well

A Bike's a Bike when you haven't got one at least you've got a plan to get back on a Storm :wink: .
It might only be a 650 but they're quite nippy little buggers :wink: Ideal for around Town, I think you might like it......for a short while :wink:

There's nothing wrong with those SV650s machines :!: Like Pete said they are quite nippy bikes, I remember trying to loose one once, I was impressed to say the least :!: Any bike is better than no bike :wink:

Hi Mark, good to see you back on 2 wheels! Haven't been here for a while (still on the Falco) so never heard how you got on. Guess the job thing didn't work out then?
SV's are great. I took a lovely trip round France,Switzerland and Italy, 2 up (steady Tony) on a naked (steady Tony) SV650 and it was well up for it! 8)
So it'll be special deals all round for 'phones now? Let me know if you ever get a job for Aprilia. Great bikes but 'customer' & 'service' should never be allowed in the same sentence! :roll:
