    Just took it for a blat up the freeway and back. I left the earplugs out and was surprised to find that the harshness of the wind
    seemed less than the (faired) GPX250 I rode up on. I wonder if it was just that the SV is far more stable at speed so the wind was
    less noticeable? anywho..

    This bike is actually an SV650s without the fairing and with a single headlight - the fairing having been smashed up and discarded.
    So the seating position was the 650s further forward style. Apparently gets you out of the wind a bit. I was happily surprised to
    find that even it was far more comfortable than the R6 ;-)

    Bloody loud thing. Had a megacycle 2 into 1... would really piss off my neighbours if I were to get it.

    Hmmm. Still gotta go ride some dual-chookies first I think...
