Well, a few weeks ago someone backed into my SV650 and left it on it's side overnight. It got banged up enough to push the repair costs well over 80% of the bike's value - thus today insurance declared it totalled.

Grr!

But, on the positive side, insurance paid me what I paid for the bike, with which I was able to go and buy my brand new 2008 Suzuki V-Strom 650!

This one will be way better for rides with Jade, as there's room for both her and our luggage (unlike the SV). It's super comfortable and has the same engine my SV had.

I just can't stay pissed at the asshole who backed into my SV, with this in front of the house :)
