    Waltham Abbey, checked it out best I could and paid a touch more than probably needed but on reflection waiting for the perfect car is fine if you don't need transport as a priority.
    Seemed quiet on start and running, none of the warning signs that I could tell. Tyres are almost new and Pirelli's so previous owner seemed to care at least.
    Has a complete dealer service history though, years MoT, 6month tax, 3 month warranty.
    Only thing I couldn't test (no fuel and low speed limits) was changes at hard throttle but the low speed ones were quiet and smooth.
    Front discs are a bit worn but not like the previous.

    Seemed to tick the boxes, time will tell.
    Thanks again for the help with the other 2, dude. Here's hoping the history doesn't lie ;)

    Realised that I'm in need of a holiday. Once back 'home' you just get in and work, not like when in the UK, constantly on weekend jaunts.

    Realised that may be nearing burn out point and time away may be in order! If only the UK/Europe was closer :(

    Went on a little ride after work just over to camber to give the bike a little ride since everything is back on her and my riding has gone absaloutly terrible, im not saying i was anything specialy before.. but Jesus i feel like ive not riden for years.. its like being a learner taking them first few corners again! since the little off and it was nothing real bad thinking about it, my cornering confidence, ability, skill? has been majorly affected, keep taking bad lines, going wide and this is on all roads that i know that i always ride that i could say take the corner relativly low at about 75-80 but now struggle to do at even 65.. not going to lie but its really grinding on me now..

    Jack.....I have been riding a fair while. Owned a cruiser now for six years or so. Gained an SV650 recently, took it out for the first time today.......bloody hell!!! Was scared sh*tless and rode like a learner for the first half an hour or so, so please, don't stress about it. It will all come flooding back, I promise :hug2:

    Yup.....don't give up. An off is as scarey as hell, and can really knock your confidence. Perfectly natural. You WILL get there, truly.
