    New bike for me!

    Hi folks. Well I finally moved on from my trusty SV1000s to something a little more sporty. I owned my old SV for 2 years from new and it was a great bike. It was time for a change so I went and test rode a few bikes. To cut a long story short, I rode the gixxer and was just blown away by it.
    Bugger me they go well!!

    I just love that feeling of having a new bike in the shed. Im off to have a beer and tinker with it..... The bike that is

    Will do more of a report on it when I get around to it.

    See you all on the road

    Good on you, a complete change from the SV

    Perfection is not something you should ever attain, but something to always strive for. For if we actually achieve our idea of perfection, is it then any longer perfect?
