Thank you to Duc-Girl for nurturing him through his early days of life, carefully developing all those parts that need attention over the first few months, and lovingly providing a warm and happy home.

Now that he has reached childhood, I have taken over his education and will provide guidance and support into adolescence and possibly beyond...

So welcome to...

my new black 2006 SV1000S

May we have many pleasurable days of riding together...

Awesome shot! And yep, it has a couple more extras now to make it look super-hot!

Have tweaked the preload slightly and played with the tyre pressures and it is handling like a dream now. Had an excellent ride up around Kaukapakapa yesterday afternoon on it. I wasn't riding very hard but Affman reckoned I nearly got a peg down...:gob:

This could be frightening...:innocent:

That's a hot ride indeed, they really do look quite stunning in black. The guy in the background looks like he's got a bulge in his pants, I guess it's to be expected when looking at a bike such as this.

Nah, that's just DMNTD. He's hung like that naturally...:dodge:

Got to admit I still like the sound of that particular SV more than my new bike right now, you sure started smiling big Jill when you started it up Saturday

The 06s in particular are hot in black as they also have the black frame, get rid of the spade on the back (done), add a hugger (done), some little bling indicators, etc all in black and its a black beauty, this one is not quite like any other you will see around, thanks to DMNTD's on-line shopping prowess

Gees go easy gurl, peg down? Im afraid.... Yep I have to admit the tyres were definately due to be checked, sorry my bad, interested to hear your thoughts on the 1,000 power, its got a strong grunt to it that bike and it was really starting to humm. Im glad its gone to a loving home that will use it properly
