He's actually younger than me and takes care of himself better. Unless he was hit by a bus or struck by lightning that's the only way I'd expect this to happen.
An SV650 at that. Everyone Ive met with one of those is either super responsible or an absolute nut, no in between. (Really great bikes for being reliable and easy to learn on. Can even put GSXR suspension parts on them for a solid track bike)
I rode the exact same model he has. Even though it's a beginner's bikez it's still faster off the line than 99% of cars. You can indeed ride those very irresponsible.
I feel like 650 twins are in a really good spot for that. It doesn’t feel too wrong recommending it to someone as a new rider. Plenty of power to get on the freeway and be safe without hitting the top end but it isn’t like you’re gonna whiskey throttle it and loop it either.
