What can I say? I passed my test on an Sv 650 and it was great. Shortly afterwards I bought a k7 bandit 650 it was fast, reliable, reasonable good looking and even economical. But I always felt something was missing. After 2 years I decided it was new bike time and that I wanted a V twin for the low down tourqe as I commute every day and the top end rush of an inline 4 wouldn't be as much use to me. Bought a k3 sv1000 and all a can say is wow! Do you want to pull wheelies? It can spin the back in the wet accidentally. Iv not taken it to its top speed, not for my the lack of me trying but at over 150mph and still with more to go I wimped out. Breaks good, handling, good, looks good. Change the standard cans and get a k&n filter and see some more power and awesome noise. Almost bought a ducati, do I regret not doing? No not at all. Suzuki make a new one now!
