Thank you! That's the one I couldn't remember the name of.

It's not a replacement for the SV, it's a secondary model that uses the same motor.

Yes. It replaces the SV650. The full naked one.
The SV650SF (formerly SV650S) is still around, just fully faired.

KILLER! It looks better in person too.

Oh and Honda is coming out with the CRF230M! Yippie! Another piece of shit not-quite-super moto to go with the crappy WR250X and the crappy KLX250F.

Holy hell as if the DRZ400SM wasn't underpowered enough. Doesn't Japan take a hint? People buy DRZ's by the boatload and then sell them because they're heavy (290lbs dry) and underpowered (39hp). Probably the single most converted Duallie in the Supermotard world is the XR650L, why in the hell could they have made a factory XR650SM!

OK, I'm done ranting.

Never thought I'd hear you say that.

I don't HATE Buells, I just don't wanna own one after the test ride I had on one.
