The SV is back

[dub]

It's like a phobia of mine...  Deathophobia?  Cliffophobia?  Fallingaphobia?   

What you are describing is common sense.

Cool.  Nobody has accused me of having any sense before!  Maybe I am finally growing up.

Thought I would do a quick update to this post.

The SV is back together and had its maiden ride today.  Greg did the majority of work sourcing parts and putting it all together.  Another good learning experience and his wallet is a little thinner now.   The list of parts got pretty long but still cheaper than a new used bike. 

Replaced a lot of the front and rear bits, but frame and engine were untouched.  Did the Chinese fairings, less that OEM, but you get what you pay for.     


Did a little run to Verdi today, took side streets there and hwy back.  Did good. 

This is the pretty side, the other side has a dent in the tank.

Good to see it back together.

And glad this is not a new crash. I forgot about this post and when I saw the title initially I thought you crashed, glad that's not the case.

I'd like to have a rebuild story to tell about Dragon's dragon bike, but it keeps getting put off.

Nice work to the both of you.  Looks great.  Hope Greg can join us for some rides this year, it'll make four of us on a ride.

Jerome crashed one of his bikes?

No.  Engine rebuild.  Seized up at RFR by another rider way back when.

Don't know if you remember his Kawasaki with the custom dragon on the fuel tank.  That bike.  It's just sitting collecting dust, getting old.

I do remember that bike. That must have been a while ago.
