Good Buy man. How much?

I use to have a CBR 600. Woopped my ass and was fun as hell.

Your looks like fun, hit 130 easy!

This'll probably be moved to the basement but congratulations on the purchase. Looking at the tires, I take it you trailered it home? Got gear yet?

I really like those new SVs and am thinking about possibly moving up to one when my noob @$$ gets tired of my current junker. Good luck, have fun, and keep the shiny side up.

ok sorry it took so long but here the new images. i took it out the next day and got a few hours of riding in before the rain ended my fun. just to answer a few things
-it cost $5500. i put $1500 down, financing the rest.
- i didn't trailer it home, my buddy rode it back for me cause i didn't know what i was doing yet. it was only like 10 miles though so the tires look that way.
- supposedly this thing can hit 135 - 140. i doubt i will experience that any time soon... if ever
- i actualy got a decent hang of it pretty quick and have already taken it over 50mph on local roads (not much but nit bad for only 3 hours of learning to ride from scratch)
-i was already given a dirty look by a guy on a harley:fawk:
- its true... when you go fats enough it get ridiculously cold.
-and its definetly true... it feels incredible... i love this thing

That thing looks freaky, kinda reptilian. Not too shabby.
