From SUZUKI: The SV's LIVE !!!!!!!

[jupiter33458]

According to the SUZUKI U.S.A. rep I spoke with...
The SV's ARE in the 2004 line-up.

The SUZUKI site will be updated A.S.A.P.(They are having issues with the server)

The SV's will be in the 2004 model line-up.

When asked about a "R" version.

Jupiter- "Is there a full faring model ?"
SUZUKI- "There are kits to convert a SV-s into a full faring cycle, but we do not have a full faring SV at this time"
J- "Are there plans to do so?"
S- "Not in the near future"
J- "2005 maybe?"
S- "I'm not sure"

[horkn]

hmmmm. well at least we know (even though we did already) that the sv's will be back..

[J-Bone]

We all knew that, nobody discontinues a one year old model.
The all important question though, is the one about an SVR... and Im sorry to say it won´t happen, ever I think.

Just cosmetics don't make an "r", that's like badging a plain jane camaro ta make an ss

[horkn]

wormser, then it makes the camaro an "RS" but true

[TLSBill]

Interesting.. but someone will call

[wormser77]

rs is an rs, plain jane is a plain jane.
Sorta like the "type R" ricers

[wormser77]

I've been stationed in Japan since 1995 & 1/2

[GXRKLR]

Ok, I'll be the first.

Keep the twins alive!

[PutteLiten]

They had a test of the SV (without the "S", fairing) in a magazine here in Sweden. It got VERY good criticism!!!

It was a best buy untill they called the insurance company...

Becasue it has 120hp and "low" weight they considerit a "sportsbike", even tho it´s a naked bike!

Stupid as******


Well, prolly going to get one of those in a couple of yeatrs, When they are nicely seconhanded --> cheaper to insure...

[TLRMAN]

Well I think it is going to be some bike like the GSVR maybe not with them letters but kinda up the same alley. I would not be surprized if they came out with a hole new bike at all or even using the GS letters in some way.
