Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick). There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too. |

When my other half was looking at bikes she found the SV to be the better bike compared to the GS500.
I think the curvy is the same seat height (790mm) + its a lighter bike than the GS by about 9kg. Could always get her one of these

Fair point, though, spec wise they're pretty much the same thing. |

I think the seat height is about 15mm lower on the CB. And I'd have to say that I'd rate the build quality higher on a CB500, they're practically bullet proof. |

Would have been perfect once your sorted all the bits from the twenty odd boxes! Your lass would have enjoyed organising you with that little job!
