Yeah, I almost never commute on my SC1K.  I use it only for things like HC rides, etc.  Hence, the reason I had it up for sale a short time ago.  So... an SBK would be a perfect match for my riding patterns.  Cool

Although, having an SV in the garage when gas hits $12/gallon  vomit would be nice since it would no doubt become my daily driver!   [moto]

Exactly, I miss the range and MPG of my 620.  I was getting around 55MPG and over 150 Miles on a single tank.  The 848 isn't quite as thrifty on the fuel.

Yeah, the gas mileage on the SV is really nice.  I used to get anywhere from 55 to 65 mpg, depending on how easy I took it.  I think the worst mileage I've gotten was on the track, where I still got something like 45 mpg (but then I'm no racer).

I'm not sure... Haven't thought about it! Maybe a lunch could be squeezed between doctor's appointments, physical therapy, and the usual insanity of making sure everything is taken care of before I move  Grin

Not yet...  Had a potential close call, but that's all.  Still got +/-30 days to go, maybe I'll post an add on cycletrader (even though I'm not so fond of their new layout).
