Re: First Big bike SV650 (Sorry!)
Well done on passing the Mod 2 and welcome to the forum!
The SV is a great choice and definitely not too big a jump from the YBR. You'll get used to the fairing and be thankful for it on the motorway or when giving it the beans on a Sunday blast.
You'll be comfy enough as I'm a fair bit taller than you and ride a naked curvy with no issues at all.
The bike is great fun, inspires confidence and is very forgiving of the odd clumsy input, just try to be smooth and don't rush anything and you'll be grinning from ear to ear.
I reckon the SV is more robust than some of the press would have you believe and this forum is packed full of helpful folk and great advice that will save you hours of faffing about if you do need to sort anything out.
Good luck with the test ride tomorrow, let us know how you get on.
