I quite like it, ditch the exhaust and get a fairing, it would look ok.

The black Glady's look ok in my book, its just that fugly headlight that spoils the look of the front

I'm going to say I like it.

But that's possibly because I had a model of Barry Sheene's Heron Suzuki on my book shelf when I was 10.

they are growing on me. still think they are priced way to high. bet they dump the SV in about 3 years and bring out a faired version to replace the SV.

As a representative of the gay Biker community, I can assure you that we would leave such a horrible looking bike for dirty hetros!

For real gay bikes, try here.
