I really like the 500's for some reason. Hmm, I do remember reading somewhere that the EX was a smudge? "better", but the Suzy will probably be a little easier to maintain *air cooled*. I do like them both, and are some of the better racing twins IMHO.

Yeah about maintenance, is maintaining an water cooled bike much harder/costy compared to maintaining an air cooled bike?

My girlfriend and I just went through this comparison. Both are good bikes, what it came down to was comfort and looks.

She went for the Suzuki.
