Default 2009 Suzuki Gladius

Suzuki Cycles - Product Lines - Cycles - Products - Gladius - 2009 - SFV650

I think its an awesome price (under $7000) for a 600+cc bike. great for starters or someone looking to stay within a budget. I like the look of the bike too. wouldnt mind owning something like this.

I love Honda, but there are not making anything affordable right now. their 600s are over $10K. I cant see myself purchasing another 1000RR till I finish school. $7K and under bike is doable/possible in the near future...



what do yall think of the Gladius?

it is the replacement of the SV. they basically just scrapped the old model and did it all over. it does look like the duc monster. and I do like the white/blue.

the only thing I dont like from it is the fugly headlight..... but that can be immediately swapped to an Acerbis.

Well, its a great bike for starters. Its perfect for an entry level novie bike.

Cheap running gear -- so I'm guessing its cheaper, but isn't the SV slightly a little cheaper?

I don't like the head lights, would rather prefer classis round head lights.
