Yes, I owned an SV650S, now I own a chopper and a VTX1800. I learned on an 82 Yamaha Seca. I didn't say 600s or 650s were slow. I said they COULD be as slow as a 250 or 300 if you show some self restraint. You can ease yourself into the power, as opposed to deciding "I'm ready" and figuring out how unready you are.
Just giving shit Sir. I didn't know that's what you rode Coming from only gixxer 600s,1000s and my current R1, it's a little different beast than a SV or cruisers.

SV650's are great beginner bikes with their less aggressive seating position and power delivery. Cheers
