Ahh, well the GSXR1000 K6 is a mere 166kg to the SV's 169kg, so the gixer is a more gurly bike. Now we have the upper hand, let's slag 'em off instead!

I've never riden a sports bike, I didn't know they don't have centre stands. I can understand for fast cornring on them, but would one really get in the way on an SV?

Good question.

I was about to say 'yes', but then the CBR600F has one, and that's no slouch.

Done to death on visordown. A search for SV650 will show the many threads this resurfaces which only goes to show how many blokes have owned SVs.
