500 Ninja... anyone who can't have fun on one, shouldn't be on two wheels.

Ninja 500 = flexi-frame and weak engine compared to an SV....

So why not just get an SV when it can be had for pretty much the same price? You can easily pick a decent used one up for $3K

Speaking of which, I think dual sports make great first bikes.
