I live in a country where on earth I can ride an unrestricted bike above 35KW (47bhp) on an L plate. My current bike is only an Enduro 125 but hey, everyone have to start somewhere. I've no experience with these bigger bikes except for the check ride I've had on respectively, which was excellent fun both times, but they're totally different riding experiences and I really don't know which one is a better start for a newbie.
The SV have lots of low down grunt and I'd probably describe it as a cruiser, whereas the GSF has profusely of power at the top end (but solely 5 gears), but for the same price as the SV I draw from ABS.
I'm looking for a comfortable bike to learn on for my check and for long trips. I'm not really intersted in track days (I'm too old) so which is it to be? Have you have one of these and what did you think? Were here any bad points? Can anyone suggest a Yamaha that would rival these two for indistinguishable price? I like the nude bike style. (I like stripped women too, but that's a different question!)
The SV650 is an awesome bike, above all for the great roads in CH. It's a vastly versatile bike that will consent to you learn humanely but also work for you with much greater experience. That bike win the "most smiles" award every year because it's so much fun. I'm not familiar next to the GSF600 in the US, except a Suzuki model. In the naked style, Honda here have the Nighthawk 750 or the CB599, neither of which is up to the Suzuki for quality or deeds. Yamaha's naked bike (although not completely naked) is the FZ600. It have nice styling but I'm not personally a admirer of the riding position. It's probably a little more than the others contained by price. I would find an SV that's one or two years old.
Did you swot on a 400? Most people I know moved from a 125 to a 400 and after moved up after a few years to a 600/750.
Oh and to answer your question, Honda power!
