2001 Suzuki TL1000R vs. 2002 Honda CBR 954RR... another biased comparison.

I'm really glad that you like it buddy! I wish you could have given the SV1000 a try tho'. I've ridden both and I really liked the more "standard" feel of the SV,I've never been a big fan of the radial shock.

I was actually going to meet up with a guy this weekend who had an '03 SV1k... the non-faired one... Had that guy not blown me off until tomorrow it may have been a different story. I was honestly considering holding out until I got to check out the SV, but after I rode the TLR it was over... I was sold.

I'm not a blind follower. Can't say Gas is either or OSP. We've all ridden both I4 and Twins. And so have many people. Vtwins are great engines.

And I'd venture to say that people who own the TL's and the twins are opposite of the followers.

if you dont like the tlr tail look into a 03 gixxer 1k tail mod, a lot of guys do it. Just need a bit of welding a 03 gixxer subframe and plastics.
