Don't worry about the future of the bike you want, worry about the past, the one that tells you whether or not it's reliable. 500s are basically bulletproof. And trust me they'll handle you with no problem. I've been over 100 on the least powerful 500 out there and I'm about 50 lbs heavier than you ...

Hello everyone. I've just recently started to use these forums on a regular basis and great forums they are.

I have a couple questions to ask.

I guess first of all I should say that I plan on purchasing my first MC this summer and I'm a little torn as to which ones I should consider.

Sorry about my last post, I didnt see that there was another page of this thread. So for that matter, I take it back . Thanks everyone.

I just read that the sv650s can be quite uncomfortable? Do you find this to be true? thanks for the sites.

Thanks a lot man. I find the sv650 is better ''looking'' than the ninja 650. so I think i will go with the sv650. Im a little reluctant to spend so much money on my first bike though, I will start looking through auto trader to get an idea of what a used one would cost. I love how I went from '' Im ...

What do you reckon the top speed for the ninja 650r an the sv650's are? Acceleration? I dont really want to be paying 6 and a half grand for a first bike,I do like both of them better than my previous two considerations. Is one better than the other,first bike wise?

Oh ok, I will see if i can learn a couple things before hand though.

I havent sat on any bikes, but Im not going to be able to even ride one ( legally ) for about at least another year.

the hyosungs looks expensive compared to my other options, I know in most cases you get what you py for, but i dont wanna drop 6 grand on my first bike.
