Im 6 foor 2 and 18 stone and im finding the SV pretty comfortable, saddle isnt as nice as my bandit one, but having the fairing is brilliant for long distance stuff.

personally i would do your DAS, the only thing i have regretted is not doing it earlier.

there are always a few bikes for sale here, usually at reasonable prices, and they are pretty easy to work on, so for a first bike id rate the sv pretty highley
