Is it good?
 

Would the SV650s be a good beginner bike?

Take into account i am 17 (have to have it restricted)
Been riding for one year
6'2 tall
15 stone (95 kg)

What do you think?
Any comments appreciated :rolleyes:

Yup!!!!! You wont do much better at 17. I had an RS125 from 17-18 then got the SV.

my dad thinks a 400 super sports would be better what do you think?

For my age and experience

But will my height and weight make it uncomfortable?

Re: Is it good?
 

400ss they are a tad small and the insurance would prob be more than an sv.

Re: Is it good?
 

Are they quicker or something?

What makes them higher insurance?

Re: Is it good?
 

the 400ss (cbr,gsxr,vfr ect) do 135 - 140mph i think (someone correct me if i'm wrong)
i'll do a quick check on the insurance for you.
