Default Re: Kwaks new SV thou?

I find the TL far more appealling, the SV seems somehow sanitised in comparison.

Hears a question why dont more of the japanese manufacturers make a quality twin sports bike! why has yamaha/ kawasaki never bothered, why dont suzuki try harder to make a nice v twin that would be a step up from the sv650, i think they are missing a hole in the market 750cc v twin sports bike nice and light with some decent suspenders and around 90bhp id want one and im sure alot of other people would. come on suzuki pull your finger out aprilia is doing it and i bet it sells well how long before aprilia make a sportsbike version of the shiver!! I agree i wish they had tried harder with the sv1000 bit more power and some decent gsxr suspension.

I cant see the point Chris there are better bikes out there. I did a lot of looking into them with a serious intention of buying one but they are just not worth the effort. There are better bikes that are already sorted and wont cost £20,000 to insure due to it being as none standard as a bike can get.

I'll have one when I've the money, if buying bikes was all logical, then I'd probably have a 400cc scooter...
