My brother in law had one for a while - lovely looking little bike. He really liked it but in the end decided he simply preferred a 4 cylinder but just his personal preference. I think people either love or hate twins. Apart from that I never once heard him fault the bike in any way and he certainly used to ride it alot.

my current bike is a twin which is why i'm leaning towards the SV, thanks for advice.
Jon, whats fuel consumption and handling like? nimble or bit wallowy?

especially the owners reviews.

Thanks Nikki, did look before but never know how biased a magazines review can be?
MCN did a test with GT650R against a kwak and a suzuki and even tho the Gt650R was better on paper and out performed the other two on the video it came last!??? :-?

I know exactly what you mean - it's why I tend to read the owners reviews not taking too much notice of what the journalists say.Originally Posted by porkies
I go through bikes quite quickly and take the view if I dont like it I can always sell it again but saying that I dont spend huge amounts on a bike so dont generally loose much if anything when I do sell them.

Some of the write-ups about them seem to be pretty good and you will always have the nay-sayers when it comes to any bike make or model if thats whats floating your boat Dan you should go for it !!! 8-)

Hyosung were making the engines and frames for Suzuki since 1976 so this is kinda a step up but on the same bike sort of :-/
Next puzzle is do i go grey or red?????

Grey...red needs a lot more loving when it is from Suzuki in my experience.
