I’m on the fence whether to spend the dough on a sv650 (the only 650 I’d consider as a beginner based on comments on this website) or a ninja 500. I have a ton of hard experience riding road bicycles and mountain bikes. I’ve ridden relatively fast and extremely slow on both. I know i have balance on two wheels. So would the sv650 be ok if I start off with the class and respect the throttle and breaks?
One thing that perturbs me is the idea that every beginner drops their bike. The SVs seem to cost about $1500 to $2000 more in my area. The thought of droping a nice bike kinda sucks.
