Any current or previous SV650 owners out there that have recently become FZ-09 owners?? I am curious as to what you have in the way of input!!
I'm 23 years old, been riding dirtbikes and stuff since I was 6 but just got my SV650 about this time 3 years ago. Since then I've ridden it nearly 30k miles, and would like to think that I have gained some decent ability on it. I now often find myself wishing the bike had more power everywhere. It's not very fast...but easy to ride very fast, if that makes sense. Anytime you're going over 90 mph though the bike pretty much just falls flat on it's face, there's just not much there. Incredible going through corners though (even with stock rear shock and just aftermarket springs in the forks).
I'm curious to know what the FZ-09 is like in comparison, to those of you out there who may have experienced them both.
