Re: I BRING YOU THE Curvy V Pointy debate.... get it off your chests here!
 

Heinz site? That where they bake 'em and tin 'em? I did not know it was a popular meeting place for the .org ;)

But seriously, it's all lighthearted stuff, who cares anyway? There are other better bikes out there, it's not like the curvy would be the best bike in the world were it not for the existence of the obviously superior pointy :p

C64 had the (much) better sound chip, but it had worse games and all the people who owned them were nowhere near as cool as the people with spectrums.

So, the SV is not the fastest, best suspended or most efficient bike ever built, but you all must admit, it does have character to it, great big dollops of the stuff. :cool:

My SV is a beauty and just to add to my fence sitting even more, I would like a Curvy as well because I think the frame is a work of art too. I was a bit disappointed when I discovered that pointy frames are not box section tubular, but a strange lattice of cast sections. The shame, because a Box frame would look so lovely to look at.

How much of the engine is used as a stressed member in each frame type?

Ok, to end the debate with the truth....
:laughat:without the invention of the superior CURVY....they would not have made the pointy, they always ruin the original invention with some inferior dilution of its former superior self:smt003

So you see the curvy is at the end of the day the better bike, because it came first, and to be honest, apart from Suzuki trying to keep up with other pointy type bikes of the current days fashion, there isn't much difference between the two, as they are the same bike effectively.

Oh and I believe..correct me if I'm wrong...but, the curvy was modelled on the TL1000...certainly what some mens wet dreams were made of...
......don't see many pointy TL1000 do ya;-)

curvy pointy........

whats better on a curvy than a pointy? Cos i think my specs arent workin right if you can spot anything.....

Curvys are BUTTTTTTTT ugly.....Its like saying the vauxhall cavalier was cool in 1985....NOPE>>>>>>>.it became cool in 1990 with the sri shape!

See ....its all about shapes....Points are modern.....curves are sodden

Oh dear.................................lol :-)

Well, I personally prefer the looks of the pointy, but the curvy has a few more practical things on it: bungee rail under the seat for one, and I've been told by those that know that the curvy is easier to work on...

A cross-breed would surely be the best, right? But would it be called a purvy or a c*nty...

You know, while I prefer curves to straight lines and points in general and prefer the lines of the curvey's fairings....

My main grip with the pointy was that without lowers, it looks kind of chopped off at the neck- unfinished- in exactly the same way as the fairing on a Fazer. It really detracts from the look of the bike as it makes the fairing look out of place.

So- while I still love my curvey most, I would have a pointy 'SV Sport' if I was buying a new one.
