@@nyashnader1 Well said friend, a commendable attitude. We can lessen risk but not entirely avoid it and so we accept it but we don't invite it. As a 59 yr old rider of more than 40 yrs, please allow me to advise you. Get it properly serviced at somewhere with a good rep every 10,000 or so and in the meantime, make a sound investment in a set of basic spanners and a workshop manual. That way at the very least you'll always have a correctly adjusted chain and properly inflated tyres and properly adjusted brakes, cables etc. These things will very much lessen the chances of falling off, it'll be much more pleasurable to ride and I really cannot overstate the difference things like correct tyre pressures makes to safety and handling. An advanced rider course is also a wise move, but most of all....................... Have fun my dude !

A quick tip about the SV650 - do not get a Gladius [as mentioned]. The Gladius is a great ride but appallingly made and will rust or snap at the drop of a hat. Oh, and if the numberplate light bulb goes be prepared to completely strip the rear of the bike. A lot of bikes here are faired, for nakeds have a look at the Honda CB500 or Hornet 900 [919 in the states] for bikes that will easily go round the clock and are easy to work on.

This bike only needs 6th gear once you're moving! No down changes for the overtake, just roll the throttle on and it pulls like a train. Love this bike.

Awesome video. Keep these ones coming. Every reviewer is reviewing new(ish) bikes. Tons of people just starting to ride who are older or larger or who aren't sure if riding is for them will appreciate the older, cheaper, larger bikes that have held up to the test of time. For example, I truly believe my 03 yamaha royal star venture that I picked up 6 months ago for $2500 is more comfortable than the likes of a newer goldwing or any other newer BIG touring machine. Also my other bike being an 06 vstrom 1000 with 105,000 on the odometer has never let me down even with non regular maintenance and I bought thay bike used for $3500

It has a few little quirks like the transmission can be a bit clunky sometimes but styling wise it looks like a bike much newer than it is, its got a lot of power, and its very easy to work on.

That's how I feel about my 650. I have some complaints but it's a fun bike and performs above what I need it to do.

I have the '05 as the '04 has carburetors, I waited for the '05 and bought mine new on on 12/31/2004. I didn't want the '04. at about 50,000 miles the linage wore out from one throttle body to the other, was on back order when mine was giving a cylinder out at idle. we put a spring over that link just like used on a lawnmower governor and that fixed the slop and it stays synched and runs smooth and powerful as new. I got the new links and haven't even thought about putting them on. It goes as fast as I want to go even though I'm fixing a bandit 1200, the weigh and the power is more than I want. riding position is too long armed for me.

The first year for fuel injection on the SV650 was 2003. However, 2003 was an odd year with a different seat and sub frame than the 2004 and up gen 2s. Also I owned a 2009 FZ6 and it would hit the kickstand hard on left hand turns, so be very careful if you're taking one to the track or a tight twisty road.

As a very happy FZ6 owner I agree with you. 48 Years of riding from a lot of road-trail, enduro, MX and street bikes I'm happy to ride pretty much anything. My smallest one was after a hiatus - a CBR125S which I rung the neck out of (Previous bike was a "warm" FJ1200) up to the 1340 Harley. For nice handling, and being surprisingly quick for it's capacity the FZ6 convinced me that I didn't need to go larger engine size. I'm happy with it for commuting or Country jaunts. It really is a good all-rounder.

Put an automatic clutch in it. they make them for every bike their is except some harleys. idling just pop it in gear and turn the throttle, let off to shift. Use the hand clutch if you desire as it still works like normal. Like rev it up in gear. they can be adjusted to how quickly they engage. set too high they will freewheel slowing down that can bother you as under a certain rpm you can set the clutch is disengaged speeding up and slowing down. It'll take off in a higher gear just wears n the clutch more. they are used in dirt bikes most often.

I appreciate the RC51 ... but i think the 929rr or the 954rr would have been a better choice with parts availability :P

i think the entire fzs lineup should be on instead of just the fzs6, my dad owns an fzs1 (the 998cc one) that he bought new in 2006 (which will be given to me once he gets something else or isn't able to ride anymore), he's still riding it daily and he has taken it and kneed it on the track in our town, never dropped it or damaged in any way, aftermarket mirrors and windscreen but other than that it's all stock. We've taken it on several road-trips together and we can both easily sit on it for 2-4 hours (not counting short stops for gas) at a time. very comfortable, its an r1 engine so we usually keep a steady 150km/h on the highway so trips are pretty short if need be. In greece you can get one for under 3k euros in perfect condition without many miles on it too so its a pretty cheap bike while also being good

First bike was a mid 80s Nighthawk S, then quit riding for a while. Got an sv650 and later a 07 Bandit 1250abs. One I would add is probably the VTR 1000f, also know as the Superhawk, (Firestorm in Europe/Canada). Likely my next bike

Just finished a 500 mile ride on my fz6 and crossed 80,000 miles. It's on the second motor but the first one lasted 60,000 miles. Love the bike.

@georgewallace4457 Жыл бұрын

The 2007.... Bandit 1250S is better than the 1200. It's liquid cooled instead of air/oil. It's fuel injected not carbureted it got 100 ponies + 79 ftlbs of TQ. And.... It's the only inline 4 I know of that has all of that torque available at 3700rpm and 70% of that torque at 1700rpm. You can roll on the throttle at 8mph in 5th gear and it won't bog, or chug... It just goes.....

The Ninja 300 is an awesome beginner bike and an awesome city commute bike to. If you manage to get a Z300, which is its naked version, even better. I have one and despite always wanting to sell it for a bigger bike like the Z900 I keep thinking how much it's gonna suck weaving through traffic and maneuvering in tight places with such a big bike. Which is why I decided to keep it, save and buy a ZX-6R in a couple years.

I ALMOST got an RC51, I was to slow. Then again, I probably need more time before I'm ready for that bike.

@mrvwbug4423 Жыл бұрын

Yeah the RC is a widowmaker, if you're comfortable taking a modern literbike on a track with the TC off then maybe consider a RC-51. It's not as sketchy as some other bikes of the era like the Suzuki TL-1000R and the 1st gen ZX-10

There's always the Suzuki TL1000s and TL1000R that are always cheaper and not as well known.

SV650 was carbureted from '99-'02. The carbed bikes were more lively. The EFI bikes seem to peter out right as they are getting interesting. Also - the frame on the first gen bikes is uber sexy. The ABS and EFI on the 2nd gen bikes were fine, it just didn't have the same level of soul. Source - My wife had one of each.

I started riding in 2006 and bought a brand new FZ6 that year. I still ride it today and starts like a new. Appart from oil and tires, I changed twice the battery and that's it.
