do you think it would be a good beginner bike and all i have heard was nothing but good from them. and take into account that i am 6'2" about 280 because i have heard that a 600 isn't a good beginner bike but i have heard that the 650R ninja is a decent beginner bike

great starter bike, I rode one the other day. It is a fun little bike. Easy to ride. Also has some mods so it could be good for a few years of riding.

as for the sv650 i don't really like the look of it, i mean the naked sport bike look is not for me, it just looks to much like a like 80s model street bike.

I have a friend racing one in the WERA expert class this year. He has been very pleased with it.

The link below may offer you some additional information on both the SV650 and 650r.

Damn thats a sweet ride, I like it. The only thing I'm not to crazy about is the exhaust outlet being so close to the front of the rear wheel. I know its pitched to the side, but still, that would bother me.

My biggest issue with the 650r is the subframe being an integral part of the main frame. I won't buy a bike that doesn't have a separate subframe. Outside of that my understanding is that the 650r is a sweet little ride.
