Hi,

My name is Hilman. I am from Sarawak, Eastern State of Malaysia.

This is my first sport bike. Initially I wanted to get Ducati 696 but opt instead for SB7 for a bargain – 6,400 Pound. This bike fits my budget and body size ( I think… ) height (5ft 2 inch), 55 lb and both my legs just managed to reach the ground! With a help of high-heeled shoes, stopping at the traffic is no problem.

Been riden on it for about 400 km so far.

But so far last weekend during stopping, it fell sideway and took 2 people to put it to stand again! Embarrassing to say the least. My wife is quick to take advantage of my slip. “Who asked you to buy big bike?” she lamented. He nerve does not hold either since SB7 is a single seater!

Anyone has a good lifting technique, please share…of course prevention is better than cure.

My next aim is to modify the bike to lose weight.

cheers

The SB7 is a very light bike as standard. The biggest scope for loosing weight is carbon wheels and change all the bolts for titanium, smaller battery and junk the fairing Laughing
