What a steal! Honda made a bike that also uses this motor - albeit reworked for more low and midrange power. It’s the Honda 919 (cc). Rode mine into work today and they’re extremely fun bikes if you don’t care about top end speed:

Ah yes, that lower design cue shows it’s face again:
Appreciate it. And I think it’s best for my chances of survival not to have top end power too.....I’m ok with that
I don’t have updated pics of my bike so can’t take credit for the one I posted, but that is the exact same but I put on a Mivv X-Cone exhaust. The Renthal bar and bar end mirrors complete everything I think.
I didn’t get a chance to ride an SV650, but I purchased an 07 Honda 919 over the summer and couldn’t be happier. If you want the sound of an I4 instead of v twin, this is another similar bike. All the power is low / mid range
It definitely surprised me how big it is and how comfortable my legs fit. Honestly never sat on an SV, just used http://cycle-ergo.com/ to determine haha.
My choice was between an SV and a Honda 919.....chose the 919. Almost 6'4" and the 919 has a tad more room.
