This was the 1st ride out with a friend of mine who just picked up the SV650 a few days ago..  200 miles on it at the time of this picture.  Took a run down to the beach, goofed around for an hour or so and headed back.  Made for a good easy 1st ride together, he was still weary of highways at this point.  We had him run in the middle of the 3 bikes, if my brother on the red Kawasaki 750 changed lanes, I quickly checked the lane and then merged over to the far side of the new lane so that the SV650 could see me in his mirrors and know is was clear to come over.  He wasn't too comfortable looking backwards yet.  Now to talk the SV650 off him for a ride.  Has a nice V-twin sound, but is in need of an exhaust to really bring the engine tone around.
