Looks kinda cool... naked... 650cc... what do you guys think?

The black one is OK but the other one is a girl's color!

I like it. What's the seat height? Can I put lowering links on it? I'd LOVE to find a sportbike that the wife could fit!

*EDIT* NM. Seat height is 30.9. This might be doable!!!!

nice looking bike, but why on earth would Suzuki put out a direct competitor to the SV650?

Somone had already posted this, don't like it.

I think this competes more with the Ducati Monster. It looks nice with the new frame work, but I think the motor is still the same one used in the SV650. I would not mind having one of these.

If ya'll will notice, the SV Standard is missing from the 2009 line-up on the website. So, I don't think it's meant to compete with the SV, but meant to replace it. It also looks like it's purposely built to compete with the Kawasaki Versys. Which, got the MOTY award.
Anyway, the black looks good. The other one's a little ghey.
(Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

I believe it would be doable and yeah, the white/blue would be a perfect color for woman (which is what I think suzu was going for with that one

)
