Hi y'all, weathers crappo so a chance to get online. Had a test ride on a rather nice Suzi SV1000S a couple of weeks back, and since returning it have spent the time doing the 'whys and wherefores' in the mind. 'Twas my birthday a few days back, rang home from work (as I usually do) mid-afternoon and was asked 'any plans for after work?'. My response along the lines of; 'umm, why dat?'. Reply back from her indoors; 'well, that bike you rode, I've bought it for you!' Duh, stunned mullet, and one lucky chap! Anyways, bit of a surprise, with the result being a new steed in the garage. Photo attached...
And yes, I did spend a couple of hours Sat morn, armed with a fistful of cleaning products, giving the 'girl' a wash 'n' polish. I'm happy...
Take care out there team, with the weather turning to custard and all that jazz..

I know she was nice buying the bike for you but did you bother cleaning the bike as well?

Them SVs are nice bikes right enough - I'm a bit partial to the sound of a V-twin myself.

Welcome to KB - we're mostly nuts but mainly harmless.

Enjoy.

Hmmm I might try that trick myself,I have a birthday comming up in July,it would make a nice change from the bottle of Southern comfort and the giant bar of chocolate I usually recieve every year (not that I'm ungrateful you understand)
Maybe I'll be a bit cryptic and start leaving the numbers 675 lying around for starters !!!!

Nice. Do the tail-tidy thing and she'll be perfect.
Welcome back to biking and to these hallowed halls.

Crikey! That's a keeper that one (your wife or the bike!) Nice way to get back into the joys of happy biking down those lanes of freedom - I guess you get to go shopping for bike bling and looking at bike porn products! :niceone:

You obviously have great taste and bloody good luck, great taste in women and bloody good luck getting the SV.
Welcome back to biking and also to KB, enjoy both.
