The best thing about the SV650 is that it's dirt cheap to insure. There isn't much else. Is there?

Jealousy

Ah, well, the truth is the bikes are almost interchangable... The pointy has about 1 extra bhp which you don't notice, and a bit of extra weight which you also don't notice, and a slightly inferior rear suspension setup which I certainly never noticed... So it's mainly cosmetics.

Does everything you want it to. If you want to bimble along serenely, or ride like a twonk it does the lot. Plus they look great (nakeds anyway ) & sound fantastic

Personally I can't bare the naked bike, the full faired pointy looks the biz though!

The engine and the frame... the rest is made of butter and cheese.

Once again another thread from the depths of time.

the best thing is how it can do everything. It will be a happy commuter. It will tour. It will give sporting thrills. It will sound good. It will get you home. It seems to be a jack-of-all trades bike
