Welcome to the Org.

He's got it in one the Curvys look good if your blind . . lol, its a long story, buy which ever one you prefer then vote for it next time we have a Pointy VS curvy Poll, ( pointys won last time )

welcome by the way . . .lol,

I much prefer the look of the pointy IF it's naked or fully faired, don't like either of them much with just the upper fairing.

I'm going for a naked one btw, cus I love 'em.

Curvy up to and including MY2002, Pointys from MY2003 (Kx series).

tut,tut

I'm 6'3" and a little under 13 stone. The SV is absolutely no problem, I can slide forwards and backwards on the seat (rather than feeling like I should sit on the pillion seat as I did on the cg125 ). It doesn't feel too low, nor do the pegs seem too high, the bars on my S are not even uncomfortably low, the nekkid one will be no problem, I couldn't be happier. I imagine if you bump up the preload a notch or two it will be spot on

The preload on my 125 is just one notch from max! I'm expecting to have to bump it up on any bike I buy tbh.

Looks like it's going to be a naked curvy simply because of my shortage of cash. If I ever manage to make a few hundred within the 2yr restriction then I'd quite happily swap it for a pointy. There are so many nice examples for sale just within the south west, can't wait to pass my test now.
