Dec 23 - My Bike

Hello John

I'm 24 years old, and got my drivers license for the moto about 2 years ago, and now I'm really addicted at it. This sv60 s is my first bike i bought, and i love it, once i drove a Honda cbr 600, but i still prefer my sv :).

The mods i made to it, are: - an undertray like you see on the picture - a double Ixil exhaust - carbon turn signals - a carbon plate under the seat (don't know how to say this in English)

Now i want the to lower the front of my bike, to have a more sporty look... I also want to tune my engine, but don't really know where to start, and what's best for my bike...

That's about it, I'm very sorry for my poor English and hope you understand .

thanks

Nico


Dec 23 - SV650.org Hardware

Just in case any of you were interested. Steven Nance has sent me some photos of the SV650.org server in it's new case and complete with memory and disk upgrades.

Quote from Steven "As mentioned before there are 12 total 80mm fans in this case. 4 directly blowing over the Hard Drives. The cables are a mess around the hard drives, but that was the best I could do in such a hurry.
There are 2 fans in the power supply, 2 exhaust fans for the case. 1 centrifugal 80mm fan for exhaust. 1 fan blowing cool air to the CPUs. Oh and the 2 CPU fans".

Dec 1

The attitudes of some people on the forum towards the end of last month did annoy me. It's a free facility made available to all readers but is not owned by anyone of them. Sure, Greg and I will listen to readers if they have a beef, but creative control is down to us. We won't do anything to spoil the site, we have it's best interests at heart. We will make the odd gaff, we're only human, but pouring vitriol on us won't help to put things right. If you have a complaint then we're keen to hear it, but tackless, offensive comments won't win you friends.

The recent server problems have been well documented on the forum. I was quite surprised that we got hit because the owner, Steven Nance, is so careful on security. It is however looking like a flaw in v2.0.10 of the phpBB, we've now gone to v2.0.11.  On the positive side it has given Steven a chance to upgrade the server using the donations from readers and also provide some vouchers for the guys that provide the bandwidth.

Thanks to Mitch for this months cover photo.


Keep it upright.

John
