Thanks for the advice about setup but I should clarify I'm revisiting my yoof and rode an sv as my first big bike. Done a few others since then but a job change meant I needed wheels again and the insurance on a bike is pennies. I've always found the sv to be very forgiving, the forks are grand and will do me for now. And nothing beats the burble of a v twin. Already planning next summers bike tour with my boy, who at 14 is planning on a bike himself at 17.
