After 30 years out of the saddle I want to get back into motorcycling. The SV650 is my choice but which one do I buy. I have read every article I can find on the internet but still can't decide. The salesman in the bike shop likes the naked bike but I like the protection from the wind with the S. My riding will be purely for pleasure and mostly on the open road. So the advantage of the naked bike in slow traffic is not an issue. How much of a problem is the weight on the hands with SV650S.
