Well folks, after the threat of transportation or worse by our Worshipful Dracster, He wanted a piece on a non RF bike, so here is a rundown on my beloved SV.
I have owned her since 2005, just bought her on impulse, as most of the things I do.

Previously I had an 800 Volusia, which was my first real bike, discounting my ol’ CG125 commuter bike, or my MOV Velocette. (Wish I had it now). To be honest, there was nothing wrong with the Cruiser, I just fancied a change.

At first I tried the SV s, nice bike but too much of a sporty position for my ancient frame. I then tried this one and was hooked.
It’s pretty much standard except I fitted a Fabbri fly screen, and bought a pair of Blue Flame cans at the NEC. Think I saved about £100 on them at the show. I would like a Hugger, but can’t see one that I really like yet.

I’m afraid the Wife, affectionately known as the ‘Child Bride’ doesn’t find it very comfortable, as a matter of fact neither do I, but I ain’t giving in. I keep promising myself a Gel Seat, but something alway’s seems to swallow up my funds at the time.

I must admit that I do like the RF’s, but I can’t justify having 2 bikes, “why not”? You say. Truth is, I don’t have the room where I keep my bike at the moment, otherwise Drac would be losing his blue & white treasure.

The above pictures were taken outside the Museum of Army Flying at Middle Wallop, which is just up the road from where I live. Nice place for a meet, methinks.
Anyway, enough waffling on about the SV, we don’t want FF getting the urge to change up to a bike with a proper engine, do we?
Stay safe out there, Bob……………..aka Finbar.
