Appreciate your inputs, I will check out both the SV650 and the 650R. Wonder if I should look at the GSX650F as well?
On the other hand, I am not sure if there are some used ones (2-3 years used) that I should look at. I am not very familiar with the models so if you have any recommendations on what 500-600 sport bike to consider? I plan to keep it for several years and am not planning to commute on it. Thanks again.
PS: Yes, I have spent time riding but would consider myself closer to a novice (40k miles in 4-5 years) than to an expert. If I get a 600cc bike, I will not be riding it out on the freeway for the first several months. Well, even if it is smaller I probably would not as I would need to get used to it.
