Goodbye SV.....Hello Baby!!!

**Uncle B** · 22nd January 2006, 20:47

Well I done the deed at last.

After months of telling myself and my better half that this is the way to go (for me) the SV got traded in for a brad spanker K5.

What a machine!

In no way do I miss the SV. The K5 has set a new level of motorcycling heaven for me. I'm still in the "break in" stage and I've only had but a small glimpse at what this thing can do......"Totallity" is the description I would use for the Gixxer.

I love it.

Congrad's mate!
I too understand exactly where you're coming from after trading in my TL and acquiring my K4. Nothing against the ol' TL but the new(ish) Gix'r's are just wicked fun.
Enjoy the running in and believe me once they are(done 3600kms in 6wks now) you'll find out when the real fun begins

Good on you - bearing in mind what you did to the SV I have to ask: when is the blinging going to start (and when it does, where will it end)?

Have PM'd Spank for a name change request as my current doesn't quite fit anymore.

Rode the WMCC demo K5 one lunchtime and still had a grin on my face at 10pm that night, said to myself that I got to get one of those.....hey presto.

Well done Uncle B! I can't wait to go a few laps with you at Manfield.
I just can't get over what fantastic machines these are. I'm so stoked for you. Here's hoping there will be a red one joining us very soon!
