....ahhh Danny.....glad to see you're finally coming around.....maybe this accident was a good thing (a silver lining type of thing here)......I love my SV.......it's a great learner bike that you can mod up as your experience increases......

....I mean learner bike not starter bike.....that's what the GS was all about......I really enjoyed my year on the GS....it taught me a lot.....but I could only learn so much on that bike......as a bigger guy, I was not comfortable on the GS after a year.....

.....not a power thing here, but a weight thing....at 230 lbs, I almost outweighed my GS......I got to a point when I felt comfortable moving on and did so.....

....I too went for an I4 (katana 750) for a few months......I got off of it because of insurance reasons......my ins company changed the classification to a superbike for some stupid reason......and I finally got onto my SV......I've been on it for almost 2 years now.....

....the SV's got twice the power the GS has.....and it's got plenty of torque t'boot.....accessories and parts are abundant......and it's fun to ride.....it's a forgiving bike that will allow you to make mistakes....

.....so heal up....part out the CBR (eh...who wants a honda anyways....j/k pablo)....and get back out there.....take it slow.....and know your limits......
