 Posted: 15:29 - 11 Jul 2011 Post subject: I want to get the same bike my neighbor has got...BUT |
 |
|
I've wanted to get an SV650s K6+ for a while now. Bearing in mind I've never (properly) rode a bike before. The SV650s seems like a decent beginners bike that fits my budget. Anyway, I just found out my neighbor (but one) has got an SV too! It's in black so from a distance it's hard to tell it's an SV, hence why it took me so long to realize, I thought it was an R6 or something I also thought it was an IL4
Anyway, would it be weird to get the same bike as a neighbor? I feel as though he might think I am trying to copy him, or '1 up' him, which I am not AT ALL. His is 09, I'm looking at 06-07. I see him very rarely so don't really talk to him other than the occasional "hi" every few months.
Btw I AM getting the SV, this isn't going to stop me, just wanting opinions
Cue everyone with a black 09 SV looking out their window guessing who it could be  |

Heres a thought for the day, go and talk to the man, ask him about the bike and he will tell you the pro's and con's of the SV.
I love mine, and yes it is my first 'proper' bike. I like the light weight, punchy engine and nimble nature of it, it's also quick enough to keep up on rideouts and as I found out yesterday, quite forgiving of silly mistakes*
*Bad ob's, failed to spot some gravel and horse shit half way round a corner and by the time she stopped sliding I was in the other lane, still lent over and carried on at a reduced pace... I had luck, no oncomeing traffic  |

Just get what you want lol if somebody else has the same bike even your neighbour theyre more likely to give you advice or have a little banter about the bike than worry about 1 upmanship especially over an SV (Ducati 1198 might be abit different though ) ____________________ Current: 02 FZS 1000 & 91 Royal Enfield Bullet 350 Some Bike Pics...
