The firestorm was a great bike when it was running ok. Sounded amazing with the Carbon can Co exhausts on it too.

The fans on the Tornado do look good. When they are not cooling, they sort of freewheel so you can see the blades better. Loads of people used to ask what they were for, was it some kind of new exhaust? or a supercharger perhaps? lol

how do you find the kawasaki? ive been mulling over the idea of another sv as an everyday bike to keep the buell for the weekends, but i realy like he naked er6s..

I just open the garage door and its sitting there!

Seriously though, Its a great bike. Very solidly built and well thought out. Its my second one. I had a naked one about three years ago, but prefer the faired version.

You can ride this bike all day with no aches and pains. Fuel consumption is amazing too. Its not quite as smooth as the SV in the engine department, but the suspension is a lot firmer (read better).

If you want one, Kawasaki direct (search on the internet) in Watford sell them much cheaper than anyone else. I think they have a few left now at £3999 on the road.

One word though, get last years model, not the '09' bike, its far inferior to the old bike. Ive ridden one!

Quite welcome to have a go on mine before you make your mind up.

Forgot to mention, Kawasaki direct have an offer on, of free delivery within the Uk, and 30 months interest free credit at the moment. Thats worth a few bob!

Ive had four bikes off them now. Great people to deal with. Ask for Lyndsay, and tell her Les from North Wales sent you!

Nice one les, which is your fave out of the sv and the kwaker? dont you miss the larger engine? you sound as though you have had as many bikes as me lol a serial bike buyer

The SV is a great little point and squirt bike, but I wouldnt want to cover distance on it. But thats exactly what ive bought it for!
