NEW 650 black frame
 

what are your opinions on the new SV650 black frame???..... i think its ugly

im still wanting to buy one though?!?!?! :twisted:

Much, much nicer than the silver frame, especially with a black bike.

far easier to rite off

Yuck.... altho on the black bike looks ok...

Looks very cheap/tacky tho

I was thinking about buying a V-strom a while back and if I had would have had to have bought this years model and they are putting the same black frame and swinagrm on the strom, hopeless for a bike that you might actually take on the more gravelly roads....don't know, but would reckon. Someone somewhere posted about the black paint chipping badly on a Honda, so I'm afraid I have little faith in the durability on the Suzuki.

I like the black frame on the black bike. It almost makes me want to go out and get one of those inferior, uglier, pointy SV's.














I said ALMOST. I'm not that desperate :wink:

black frame looks better on a black bike, but on a blue or silver bike, the silver frame looks better IMO

I don't like the colour and I think its the wrong shape. :wink:

They only made it black as it hides dirt, rust and discolouring.

Probably so they can make it out of a cheaper, tarnishing alloy.

Actually black SHOWS dirt a lot faster than most other colours
