Default SV v CBR600?

Ok ive been posting a few questions recently about other bikes. However ones just come up a cbr600f.

Now i would be looking about a 2001 and it looks like its got everything you could want. So is it an upgrade from the sv? or more of a sideways step?

The missus' brother went from an SV650S to a CBR600F and thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread - better in every way than the SV was...

The engine will take some getting used to but if you have the cash why not?

30 more Horsepower (approx) and better suspendies and brakes. It's a forward move.
