Though that the current SVthou is 118bhp.

According to MCN, it's "only" 102 bhp at the rear wheel (sorry for the omission of that important fact) and the new one is claimed to have 118 bhp at the rear wheel.

That'll bump it up another insurance group then

The 2005 naked and the S also share the same mechanicals (there's a sight difference currently) which will make it easier to get after market parts if you've bought the naked.

Now if only they'd put upside down forks on it... oh and a curvy frame
