no flame as its your choice but the sport version seating position is terrible and almost everyone who has a sport wishes the riding position was better. until you strengthen your wrists and lower back you will be in pain after about 30 miles. who cares what it looks like in the garage your riding the thing and thats what it's all about, grin factor
TBH i think the SV650 a is fugly bike in both guises.
what ever you decide have fun, stay safe and keep it shiny side up.
