As soon as I got it back, I stuck on a can and went for a blast. So nice having the ability to overtake safely!

It may "only" be an sv, but I love this thing.

For those who DON'T know Palmer... as he started lurking about on here since 2004 when his bollocks didn't drop yet. it's been a VERY long time coming! Mind you, you WERE distracted by your french hot hatches for quite a long time though!

Saying that, you probably wish you had you GSX-R400 now?

Guy that is preparing the estimate says rear sub frame is bent along with the forks.

Both of those alone on a 10 year old bike with 38k miles probably isnt ideal.
