a sportsbike...

it was earlier classified a street / standard.

i wonder if the insurance rates for the GS500E will rise due to the GS500F's body work?

Considering how dicked up the Suki web site is, I wouldn't put any water in what it says.

As for insurance. It might go up eventually, but it will probably take a while if at all for them to "realize" its changed.  SV650 rates are still low because it is still classified as a standard.
