Default Sv1000

Is there much difference betweennormal SV1000s and SZ model?

Not on paper but in actually riding one. was wondering if it was worth the extra cost.

(Modded,volume lowered, missing letters adde& punctation, try turning off the CAP next time)

What???

I reckon the only difference would be top end speed. Might be slower through twisties as it's a lot heavier and not so chuckable.

Eh ?

The SZ is just an S with the 2007 spec engine, lowers and GSXR style paint scheme. I don't think it's available anymore as "new" but some old stock may be around.

As far as I'm aware, the K7 has the same engine, but I may be wrong...

I reckon Dan got confused with a 650.
I don't know about SZ, but I saw a LOVELY SVR 1000 on the way to Brands yesterday - high level cans and great paint job
(May have got the name wrong but it was an SV1000 with an R in the name somewhere)

the 650 is a dream to ride and chuck about compared to the 1000, the 1000 is not the same bike 650 but with a bigger engine.
