traded my K2 SV650S in yesterday for a shiny black Z750.8)
Decided the cramped riding position on the SV had to go. Fed up with the cramp!
hope this doesnt mean i cant frequent this site any more?!

buy the way - got the following stuff for sale on ebay for the SV:-
oval stainless scorpion exhaust that was only on the bike for 10 miles.
CCC oval stainless exhaust with small dent.
K&N that was on the bike for approx. 500 miles.
Unused pyramid rear seat cowl (black metal flake)
used rear sub frame.

if anyone intrested i will post the ebay ref numbers

I took one of those for a test a while back.

Loved it. Only thing that put me off was how quiet it was and the fact i couldn't see the front of the back when riding it. Do you find that?

I'm having the same problem with the riding position on the SV. I find my hands get numb after about 20 minutes riding so I'm looking for a more upright sitting position as well so I'll be interested to find out if you're banned for changing lol.

Was looking at the z750 or the er6-f but then I went into a Suzuki dealers yesterday and fell in love with the GSR600.

Dunno what to do now lol.

Lol I meant the front of the "bike". I found it very offputting.

It's been a hard day.

i know what u mean.
its just the fact we were used to seeing the fairing sticking out in front, plus with the drop bars you are lower down making the front look longer.

you need to buy one.
