I have ridden my mates GSX600F and thought it was rubbish! It felt so cheaply made, I am shuddering just thinking about it!
Enjoy the SV - made by the same people yes, but a much better machine! ![]()

Well I have to agree with the looks of the GSX-F and the build quality is bad...ok they have no redeeming features after all....comfy and the engines are mega reliable thou...

I was all set to get me a teapot, had convinced myself that it was a misunderstood beast and not as bad as all the reviews (and my biking mates) were telling me. "Owners love 'em" said Bike magazine, thought that could be me.
Then I saw an SV with lower fairings fitted, went back and read the many shining reviews for it, discovered it was about the same cost to insure/run as the teapot but an altogether more exciting bike, and now I have my lovely K3 which is great. And its that good looking I'm proud to stand next to it in the petrol station. Close shave..... |

hate 'em. Better off with a Bandit 600.
Plug-ugly too - the back end of the 600 looks like a dogs knob ![]() |
