Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

I think that's out of the budget range. Fun though, true that.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

Oh yeah!... Almost bought one of those from Cycle Sport a few years back, but Brett wouldn't give me the discount I wanted on a 1 1/2 year old floor model...

I actually looked at that SV1000S on Hickam thru the owner...but it was before I had sold the 675!!! It had been on CL for about 3 weeks at $4700 with no serious offers. Owner told me it could be mine for 4K...but I couldn't move on it! It's really pretty nice..... I actually like the 954 better...though it's not as clean as the SV

true Ben, POS really? ....... press and owner's give it very good reviews for street use with a little hooligan thrown in.

Yep, POS.
A 954, in and of itself, is not necessarily a POS but the one on CL looks like it might be a bit rough. Pictures aren't that good so who knows until you see it in person but you know that work is needed right off the bat to get a safety check and make it decently rideable. Just saying that the Suzuki looks cleaner and might give fewer problems. It also makes a nice Ducati like noise too. and might be better for your whole riding style. But, who am I to say?
