SV1000 (2003 - 2005)
It’s not as racy as Aprilia’s Tuono but has that typical SV reassuring feeling about it that gives you confidence

Good town bike that is slightly larger and heavier than its 650cc sibling.
May not excite enough for more experienced riders
The SV1000 is like the 650, but on steroids. Like your best friend it’s solid, reliable and fun to be with. If you are after a naked bike it’s very competent but it does lack the ‘kick-in-the pants’ elements of the TL.
