The weight on the SV is very low. I swear that bike flicks as easy as my 2009 ZX6r. The only thing I didn't like about the SV1k was if you were in 6th gear at say 50mph, then hit the gas the engine would clang. However, it is one of the only 1000s I've ridden where you could full throttle in all gears up to 160mph without the front end coming up. Made for better racing IMO.

Open to offers...

Triple I love how you add the tax and shipping in.
