Should we welcome Gladius owners?
 
DO you think Gladius is a part of the SV family? 3rd generation SV?
The bike is somewhat treated like a sore thumb especially in the US, what's your opinion?

Really, the yanks dont like it?

I dont know. I dont think its very nice (see ThEGr33k's opinion of the gladius on youtube) and isnt a true SV. Whats happening with the S version? Or is this a bike to be sold along side the SV650S/N?

:confused:

I dont think that we are talking about them not being welcome here are we? Anyone is pretty much welcome here, we arnt against other bike riders... i hope not anyway as im on of them :rolleyes:

A lot of people are thinking that Gladius is the 3rd gen naked version and that the S version will be something sporty and special. Hope that's true.

'' yeah its a bit sh!it innit:mrgreen:''..to quote a certain Greek

Its so naff i even named me pillion after it. Can't see why the people who ride it shouldn't be welcomed though. If TLzone can have a SV section then why not

Me too. A little sports V-twin would be great, a Gixxer style twin. BUT I really doubt that is what it'll be. Itll be budget I guess.
