Default Article in this months Bike

there is an article in this months BIKE which puts the SV650 in the top ten second hand bikes to have.

Now I completely agree with nearly all their comments in terms of engine power, ease of ride, forgiving, Vtwin smile. But where I draw the line is their claim that the curvier model is sexier !!! Everyone knows that it looks like a badly made balloon animal and that the pointy is by far sexier.

I may have to complain to the journo's obudsmen about this glaringly obvious misleading twaddle !!!

(Steps away from the smoldering blue paper)

The article is Britain's most popular used bikes searched for on motorcyclenews.com. The top nine were in last month and were are sports bikes. This month was the 2nd part, the next most popular.

I agree with their claim being a load of rubbish, curves are only more lovable on a woman!
