I'm in the market to upgrade from my Suzuki GS500E to something a little bit bigger. I find it to be to small for me in general, I'm 6'3 210 lbs. Don't worry, I'm not a road-racing squid that wants a 1300 Hyabusa, just something with a little bit more power and carrying capacity for long trips and some fun on back roads.

Do any of you have experience with the Suzuki SV series? If so, which one do you have and what are your thoughts? I LOVE two-cylinder motors so I'd prefer another one. They are so easy to maintain and have great powerbands. Any other suggestions on what to check out?

Keep the shiny side up!

I love naked sport bikes -- I have a Honda 599.  Here's an article that compared the Suzuki, Honda and Yamaha bikes (the SV650 did really well):

Saw Jay Leno driving this to work today: http://spyder.brp.com/

Might make an interesting bike if you need carrying capacity!

Jay Leno is my hobbyist idol, talk about a cool collection of toys! :)

This might be out of my price range though  :hissy:

Starts at $15k...
