Probably because it's an I-4. The only reason why the gix is on my list is because I've sat one and it feels almost perfect. Most of the other bikes I have yet to sit.

The main thing I'm looking for in my next bike is comfort, which includes how well I can actually touch. Yet I don't want a torture rack. I've sat the R6's and the CBR's and the position is way too agressive for me and it's not comfortable for me. Weight is a semi issue. I prefer something who's weight will be close to the SV.

I would prefer another V-Twin. I love the power delivery of the SV and wish for something similar. Until I'm a more competent rider, I prefer to stay with something that's similar to what I'm used to.

Design/looks: I've always loved the naked and streetfighter look over fully faired bikes. Besides, I'm lazy and don't want to have to take more off than necessary just to change the oil. I break stuff almost everytime I work on my bike so I try to keep replacement parts cheap and to a minimum.
