Title: upgraded to the sv1000
Post by: jeast on March 20, 2008, 10:38:40 AM
well i upgraded to a 07 sv1000s last week and i'm very pleased with the bike.  to me it is a big improvement to my 04 gs.  of course the biggest thing is the power.  the only thing i need to get used to is the riding stance but other than that i'm in love with this new bike.  thanks for all the help i got from this forum

i'll try to takes some pics soon, but it is the same blue as my gs was, really wish i could of got a black sv.  i like the v-twin feel and sound also the sv is a lot more stable in high winds.  the gs was a good bike for me to learn on i put 13000 miles on it.
