I think they're absolutely fantastic, and so easy and fun to ride too and all for peanuts money. I HIGHLY recomment them. I also had the SV1000S which was another good bike and underrated too.


As for the SV650 the greatest endorsement I can give it is that if I had to economise or downgrade from the RSV for whatever reason I would be straight down to Crescent Suzuki and pick an SV650S up. In actual fact they're due an update so if Suzuki decided to equip them with fully adjustable suspension, trimed off a few kgs and added another 5+ bhp, and kept it around £5000 I'd seriously ponder one as a second bike. They really are great.


Good mods to get are fulll fairing lowers, rear hugger, progressive springs, race air filter, race can, and braided brake hoses. Out of the crate it's a great bike but when it's kitted out it's fantastic and more than a match in both handling and performance for any of the jap supersport 400's of the 90's which should give you a reasonable indicator of what it's capable of.
