I prefer the sv, handles better, PULLS like its half the weight of the zx, sounds meaner than the zx, also insurance on sv is cheaper (somehow) than a zx, £70 cheaper in fact at a mere 260 tpft with pillion cover 8 points declared and also 3rd party on any other bike.

All round the sv is winning for me, only thing I might chop it in for wouls be an MT-09
