I really like the SV650 and sat on a new 2005 one yesterday, I want a blue but I don't like the black frame I think the silver is nicer. Am I the only one?

I personnally prefer the Silver one from '03

LayinLo · 11-18-2004, 02:49 PM

+1. I love the loooove the silver frame and silver rims.

black frame = less time cleaning, more time riding

You realise that when riding you don't even see the frame !

Gixxerdale · 11-18-2004, 08:14 PM

It's riding not posing that counts!

Did I say that?

JefLaf · 11-19-2004, 04:24 AM

Of course its the riding the counts, but if you can look good cough cough great at the same time, why not. And extra cleaning isn't that big of a deal, I have nothing better to do (besides ride of course).

I thought the black frame took the same amount of time to clean as the silver frame.....what am I missing here?

**Uncle Bob** · 11-19-2004, 07:29 PM

Misguided opinion that black=dirt color.

**Freakinout** · 11-19-2004, 07:32 PM

I like it both ways, it depends on the color (colour for the canucks) of the bike.

black is faster.
