that nice init ....... not bad for a first bike buddy bet you have fun on it 

[Chrisblack10r]

nice bike mate, looks in good condition too

well done 

[KevB]

Quite tidy for a stoodents bike 

Enjoy it bud and like I said in the other post when you ditch the 33bhp kit it's like a new bike 


Although mine was on a 6R so was quite a power gain I don't know what an SV kicks out as standard... still though it will fly by 

[EXJ10R]

keep your 10R that clean and fettled when you get it  and you'll do alright mate        

[Andy J]

looks really nice and clean too pal, I'd keep that chained to something always 

[alpinestarhero]

Thanks chaps, it is a tidy bike, i have to keep it that way or it'll fall apart! Got a small oil leak at the moment, just through one of the bolts holding a cover on (rhs). Its always locked up, but an almax is on the way 

KevB, how did you find the 6R restricted? I know of a lad who had a GSXR restricted, and couldnt get on with it as it had little low down power (SV still retains a fair wodge of the low down torque, so its still usable). He chopped it in for an SV in the end. Full power bike kicks out a stonking (!) 66-70 bhp. It'll feel like a rocket to me!

if that feels like a rocket maybe the ZX10R is too big a leap for you..... the Ten R is an aggressive power delivery  A true rocket ship....105mph in first Gear

LOL yea, dont worry - i will go to the ZX10 via a 600 first, something like a K1 gsxr (my dad had one before his K6 750, it was a very nice bike). That way I can learn the craft of an inline four, with its reduced amount of engine braking..

It is, i study chemistry there. I dont live in the area though - at the moment im at home home in brighton, and during term time I'll be living with my girlfreind at her parents house in north london (so a lovely commute through the north circ and hangar lane etc each day). Least on my free time i can go to box hill

Matt

[GRNINJA]

sweet still not to far to come and have a blast either way.... Brighton is a good run for us and north london is near the Ace Cafe so at some point you can come on a blast with us 

[simple]

 

I might not be the slowest then 

Well , in a straight line that it 

[alpinestarhero]

LOL well most poeple are faster than me in all area's at the moment, I'm still building up knowledge and understanding! Getting there though, pegs down soon maybe.

Sure, if you guys come to brighton I'll come along and met you some place
