I think that Suzuki have to upgrade the SV pretty quickly to match the new boys.

Or else its 'the GS500 replacement' wooden spoon

I'LL go for the Big H over Kwak though. They're MotoGP champs!

Completely agree, i am just waiting to them in the flesh, the Honda appeals to me due to the build quality and the 2007 CBR engine (albeit re-tuned..not detuned lol)

I have always wanted fairing but these look pretty meaty... I hope they havent used cardboard for a seat.

But sadly it's a H***a, thus not a serious contender for your money.

What've you got against Honda, Sid?

Jealousy proabably

Looks quite nice, I prefer the ol design of course and I think the new Z750 may get more attention in teh looks dept. Still, at least with a Honda you know bits won't fall off.

I like it. As PH said love those pipes but also have to agree with DarrenSV650 the clocks do look a bit gash.

My bro has an an 06 Hornet and he thinks it looks like **** !

I can see the ER-6, Z750 and the GSR600.

Do think is the new Z750 is a nicer design.

There really is no accounting for taste!

I think the exhaust system is horrendous. Can nobody see that MASSIVE collector box? The silencer seems to be in a million parts too. Micron have designed a tidy swoopy road legal can.........

Not keen on the **** end of it either , the split tail piece/ seat, think you would have a job tiding that up as it looks like a large alloy/plastic unit.

IMHO the "old" Hornet is a classic piece of design and still looks ****hot. Simple and clean.

New Z750 is more conservative and would get my vote on looks.

I still believe the Pointy looks better than both of them.

Honda should find a lightweight chassis to put the Deauville V-twin in.

That would be Budgetastic.
