I love the power delivery and sound of my SV.....

It's smoother with less "rattle." That was one of the things that turned me off the SV and air cooled Buells. Stock suspension is better than the SV too :nee

Just wait if you don't want to paint it. Kawi likes to cover all the color bases in about a three year rotation. Or you could try to trade plastics/ tank over a bike-specific forum.. Plenty of kids with the '06 two-tone 650R swapped lowers to match.

Most of the aftermarket exhausts look and sound like shit. They just make it louder and lose the thump- and then it really sounds like a lawnmower. JMNSHO of course. The only one I care for is the Laser Extreme, but dropping $600 on an exhaust sucks. I'll just be greedy with the sound of mine and not draw cops.
You sat on my 650R Rogue- that's with aftermarket lower bars. They really changed the riding position for the better for me. No more elbows at the ears. The stockers made the riding position cramped for me, but it's really upright and an easy reach for shorter riders. The ER6N sits the same as the stock 650R. For a while they had photos of a girl on the Ninja on Kawi's site.
