    Hello folks,

    Been lurking on the forum for a bit, and thought the time has come to introduce myself.

    I'm from Winchester in Hampshire, and I've only ever owned an SV650S, which I bought after passing my DAS 3 years ago.

    There used to be a chap who lived a couple of doors down from me in Southampton with a grey Daytona 675. It looked and sounded so awesome it made me finally stump up the cash to sort out my bike license, and now here I am.

    I forced myself to buy the SV for the first few years, and now I feel comfortable on the bike and (hope) I won't do anything too daft - I've laid down the deposit for a brand new 675R which I'll take delivery of on 1st March. Part 'cause of the new plate, part 'cause it was snowing when I ordered it!

    Can't wait! :twisted:
     
  2. Good times welcome to the Party pal! :)

    Thanks for the warm welcome everyone :)

    Would love to make the fest, sounds fun, but checked my calendar and I'm on call that week. Probably not any chance of getting out of it :cry:

    r19vul and scottondanet, look forward to meeting you sometime when I've got the new bike.

    This time in two weeks she should be snoozing in the garage after a long day of riding - just a shame I won't be able to give her the beans! :D
