    Hyosung uses the Suzuki SV-650 motor so if this bike uses the Hyosung motor...

    For the money, you might as well get the Suzuki which comes with an established dealer network. I'm all for a "new" motorcycle but not when it uses off the shelf components from other companies.

    KC-10 FE out...

    I think the bike looks pretty sharp.
    At least they didnt plop a H.D. motor in the thing.
    Tailpipe looks a bit funny to me.
    I have to agree with KC..I'd rather put my $ on a SV-650, the 2008 SV's come factory with a full fairing now and they look pretty good!!!

    Hyosung is contracted & makes the SV650 Motor :wink:

    Yes it is a Hyosung/sv650 motor in the fisher & either or Suzuki or Hyosung dealerships can get you the drivetrain parts for the Fisher.

    The only stand out of the Fisher from the other 2 is the swing arm/brakes/suspension set ups, with many other options Fisher has available.

    So yes, you can get a SV or Hyosong & then spend the $$$$ to have the same things as the fisher, or purchase a Fisher & already have the Mods :biggrin:

    Your the consumer, so your choice ?

    Me, I'd take the Ninja 650 twin over all 3 :fencing:
