i am about to purchase the SV650S and i wanted to know what your guys opinion on it as a starter bike?

 

You mean SV 650..............

I dunno about it being a starter bike. It is a twin.

 

yea my bad thats what i ment i mean people said the 600cc like the r6, CBR, and the GSX-R, is quiet fast i mean they push roughly 105hp while the sv650 is about 77hp

 

I think it would be one of the better starter bikes out there. I bought a 2005 Ducati Monster S2R for riding along with my 600RR........the Ducati has been an excellent starter bike for my girlfriend. Very easy to shift and nice progressive throttle. Gotta love the Ducati style.

 

dont do it, i have 2 friends that have bought them, and now wish they would have bought a super sport 600, and they would lose money if they sell them, but hey, do what u want

 

I both agree and disagree...........depends on the individual and how they learn to ride. Do they hop on and recklessly try and stay with experienced riders? Do they take the MSF? Some people handle the throttle responsibly, some don't. Very simple.

 

true but im just sayin.. but for price wise it sounds like a great deal

 

If you like it and the bike fits you well then go for it. 99% of the new bikes are top notch in quality. It just comes down to the type of riding, experience, and comfort. We can tell you what to get but just remember, we're not the ones riding YOUR bike.

 

true! thanks just wanted to hear some reviews out it

 

good starter bike, plenty fast, good starter race bike too
