    being a 650cc its clearly not our agenda - alas, pub thread engage.:offtopic:

    anyways, found a suzuki Sv650s on Gumtree just around the corner of my new residence for 3G's

    still has all original paperwork and a OCD style history :crazypilot:

    sporting a rather angry Remus exhaust system too. love the big V-twin snarl and torque

    Nice one!

    Trust me when I say functionality over aesthetics. I was in a similar boat with my Hornet. I had a choice between bikini or full naked. Got the full naked and every time I hit triple digits on the speedo, I wonder why I chose it haha.

    Was thinking of buying one of those until I had a test ride. Lucky there were no speed cameras about or I would have lost my licence many times over. They are a great riders bike, enjoy your time with it.

    Owned one for a couple of years and never tired of riding it. Called it the poor mans Ducati, very popular bike, certain you'll get plenty of enjoyment from it + it's a Suzuki.:thumb_ups:

    Mundaring is a good ride, make sure you get down to Fremantle and have a beer at little creatures brewery
