New member intro.
Hi all.
I have a 2001 650 in grey and have had it now 1 month.Not ridden it much due to needing some work doing,but the short 40 mile ride from the seller I found it to be a great handler with that excellent engine ,had a SV650 a few years a go.I like vee twins and was looking at Monsters but wanted something more exclusive so here I am.I've been a member of other single bike make forums(Honda cb-1) recently and the wealth of knowledge invaluable hence joining.I'm based in Waterloville Hampshire and have been riding since I was 17 now 52 and haven't been without some type of bike in all that time!
Regards to all,and early Xmas wishes! Dave

Hi Dave. Glad you chose the Rap over the Monster. It is more exclusive, but doesn't feel particularly exotic. It's just a damn good bike. Hope you enjoy your new bike for a long time to come.
