I'm not very impressed with it claud. I just hope i have enough money to buy something larger, sportier and with less cylinders.

Huh?!

What do you want a v-twin or something? You will learn to love revvey engines. I can relate to the sporty side of it, but surely it cant be that bad round corners...

I'll have it, if you dont want it...

(For free) Praying Smile

thing is what else is there with less cylinders thats not either a monster tl1000r, gay sv600, or hideously expencive and unreliable ducati...

I had the SV last time round, i thought it was good fun. I just don't feel at home on this bike. The handling isn't as good as on the SV an the pegs touch down far too quickly. My last memory of comming off were the pegs scraping then the back end aprearing from behind me, so it's a little un nerving to feel the peg on the floor.

You can have a go of it for free claud..

It will be a problem finding a nice afordable twin, i don't think the value of my bike would pay for the insurance on something like an SP1.

OO yeah SP1/SP2, now you're talking...

TL1000R ? perhaps

is there such thing as an sv1000?

Honda firestorm? that could be suitable.

Cant think of much else...

TLr's are nice, Ste's was a beaut. It's something to consider certainly.

There is an SV1000, a friend of mine has one, but im not a fan. Im not keen on the looks.

Firestorms are nice, i'd have to have a mither at Korn/Zim about them nearer the time.

One way or another i hope not to be on a hornet this time next year..
