Demo ride/SV1000S

[Craig Goldstein]

Got a chance to Demo ride a new Suzuki SV1000S today in Orlando.  For those
unfamiliar,  The SV1000S is basically the TL1000 motor stuffed in the SV650
frame(well for the most part).  Ive ridden the TL1000S but finally got my
chance to ride the new SV1000S.  Its one amazing bike!!!



1000ccs of Suzuki V-Twin power.  Its unlike the cruiser V-Twins in that its
90 degrees opposed to something more like 45 degree for the cruiser world.
It has 4 valves/cylinder and fuel injection.  Over 100 horsepower and gobs
of low end torque.  < mile in just under 11 seconds and a top speed of
something like 155 mph.  Handles like a superbike and brakes are so powerful
its remarkable!  The Ducati sound even with the OEM canisters is
intoxicating and under heavy throttle the intake growls like a beast.



Apparently Bill and Frank visited the countrys largest Suzuki dealer today
and actually found me the best deal around.  Word is this dealer received
over 30 03 SV1000Ss and has 7 left. Looks like Im going back to the dark
side.
