I've been back riding again for 10 years, and have worked my way up to a SV650. Mine was a faired 650S, but it was removed and a fly screen added which is fine for me. I've heard from one source that the fairing makes high speed riding over 70 a bit tricky - but I can't confirm or deny that. I can't vouch for the Ninja, but I love my SV. I'ts so smooth and all that torque is where you need it. It can certainly fly if you throttle it, but it's not too overwhelming. Test both if you can and read all the reviews you can.
