A naked SV might be kinda cool

For me it would have to be a GSF600S or SV650S.  Gotta have the fairing.

I've seen numbers posted for stock GSs that are faster than 14.8 for the 1/4 mile (14.7ish and 14.3). :)  I did the numbers once, and with me on it, the power/weight ratio of my GS500F was better than a stock BMW E36 M3.  So it ain't bad.

I think the Katana is a dandy option, if the full fairings are a must.  You'd need to get aftermarket lowers for an SVS, and I'm waffly on any that look right short of race plastics that are a set.

Having an upper fairing is a must for me.  The lowers would be nice but they are not a must have item.

Have you had lowers?  I've discovered that I really, really like them.  I like my legs being protected from wind and debris and rocks, not to mention dirty water when it's raining.

I've had full fairings (on the F) and full naked (on the E). I'm converting the F to an E. I think you know where I stand on the matter. :lol:

It will still be an "F", just an unfaired one  :thumb:
