(Said with a bandit owner sat across the other side of the desk to me - though he brought an RSVR to the office this morning... might let him off).

I had a bandit many moons ago and I loved it

No, but it was great getting nice harmonics going. I was following, get the rev's wrong & they fight each other. Get them right and OOOOOOOOOOO the noise! That RSVR has a nice 'zorst on it, and is complimented by my scorpion.

Tbh, its not that bad. Its heavier than the SV, and when changing directions quickly the back end gets a bit light, but i've not touched the suspension settings yet.

Bit gutless low down in the revs, but thats an IL4. I miss the twin delivery and engine noise, but its actually a very good bike. Drinks a little more fuel than the SV, but then the top box don't look so bad, and its a strong engine (650 oil cooled model). I've got a friends whos come on here and if im not in the right rev range, he's all over me (straight line). He's got a K6 SV650S.

Its very comfy though, and the missis loves the top box as shes got something to rest against
