Cheers Terence that would be grand!!

my only worry with the SV is its a bit smaller than my Bandit, and im quite a large chap!!

6 foot 2
18 1/2 stone
Large

and im wondering how comfortable the SV is going to be compaired to the Bandit.

I rode my mates '97 GSXR 600 and i really didnt like that pegs far too cramped and bars way to low, i think i need to get a test ride on one first!

Checklist

Unfortunately not SV specific but pretty thorough.

As for your largeness, I wouldn't know... I'm 5'10, 11 stone and the SV fits me just right. My impression of the SV versus the GSX is that I sit a bit closer to the tank and handlebars (and therefore a little bit more upright), but that the handlebars are a tad lower. Still about a comfy as the gixxer though, no complaints.

A test ride, or at least test sit, is the only way to go to be sure.
