No, much like the early ER6's, it looks like it was built in Taiwan by Mattel, to appeal to a 6 yr old!

Yep, it replaced the SV which always got called a girls bike, so I guess Mr Suzuki decided that if the cap fits...

True, it is an acquired taste. Once you acquire some taste you know to put the rim tape in the bin.
