Looks really great with those on! I didn't think it would that much of a difference, wow.

I know.. I ordered my rear seat eliminator now all i need to do is hack that lower fender off and it will look sweet..

Good choice on the bike man! The SV's are perfect for beginners, they inspire a lot of confidence.. I bought a bike about 3 months ago but not my first, so far I have been absolutely loving it! It's an 06 GSXR 1000..

And to the person who said the ZX-14 was the fastest production bike, you better check your facts, the 06 GSXR is faster than the busa in the 1/4 mile at 9.6@148, not to mention it will BLOW the ZX away in handling, stopping, cornering, etc, etc, etc. 1/4 mile isnt everything in the motorcycle world...

Red, really nice bike, I just don't dig that pipe.

I was gonna get a Gsxr but i decided against it because when i get comfortable with something i start to speed alot and get into trouble so i figured with a smaller bike the less trouble i can get it..

The 1k is a handful, definitely not for beginners.. They will either get you killed or in a whole lot of trouble in a hurry.. Its pretty nuts to think you can be rolling at 50 mph crack it wide open and be doing 130-140 mph in 3 blinks of the eye...

Mustangphil: I dont mind the stock pipe, but I will be going to a Micron highmount shortly..

I feel if i can go 0-60 a hell of a lot faster then my 5.0 its enough for me.. In a couple of years ill get a gsxr 1000 just not now..

He probably got confused with most powerful production bike (which it currently is) . Surely not as fun as a 600 or 1000 in the twisties but I'd love to see what damn near 200 wheel horsepower feels like in a strait line.
