looking for a used Suzuki SV650 S

Darxus: I will say this about Motorcycle racing...
Don't do it...
It's like having a crack addiction...
I've done autoxing and it's "Fun"
Motorcycle racing is probably THE BEST RUSH you can have that's legal...
It's better than sex... and that's not just my opinion...
There are Track Days & there is racing...
Sky diving last 5-15 seconds if your lucky
Motorcycle racing lasts 20min...
Imaging having the best 20min orgasm of your life...
but doing that 6-8 times in a day...

So now I want a used Suzuki SV650 S, maybe about a year old.
(Cyron is an old friend of mine who's been doing this ~4 years.)

Thanks for all the info.

Yeah, I'm probably okay with the space marine look :)

Yeah, I would guess the SV650S would be a little too much to start with, but Cyron has known me pretty well since like 1995, and strongly recommended it for beginning riding and beginning racing, so... I want it.

Talked to a couple peole about getting the non-S to not have the faring to break... sounds like dropping it is going to scrape it up but not break it enough that it'll *need* replacing. I fully expect to drop it, but I like the look of the S more enough that I'll try to get one.

yeah, I plan to get one used (about a year old).

I can ask [livejournal.com profile] metahacker what frame sliders he got for his SV650 - they look like they belong on the bike and they'll keep things like the oil radiator from getting scrapd/bent in the event of a fall. I don't know if they'll work on the S without cutting a hole in the faring, cause I don't know exactly where the faring would go. . .

Frame sliders sound wonderful.
