Hello all,

Just a quick hello from a noob...

Got my first big twin bike last week, 06 RSV-R. Very different from the inline fours I'm used to having, but loving it.

Was sent this way from apriliarsv.com by redratbike.

Interested to know if there is anything recommended doing,
Or looking out for in these machines?

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Noob, I'm not far from Woking. I live in Shepperton. 

Do you ever ride out to Boxhill or Newlands Corner?

Cheers,

Ray.

I hadn't forgotten the wheels paddedcell just didn't want to start you off again hahaha.


Yes that's the one your friend talked about. Mine are fine and some stay that way but most destroy themselves at some point.

Yes mate, head up there every now and then.

Sometimes it's a good run, but the best part it's traffic all the way Loomies is a good ride though if you ever head there?
