Not everyone can be comfortable on every bike and for me its a sv650. I traded bike and rode a old street triple with bent bars smoother than I could ride my own. Zx9r same way same weekend of riding. The reach to the clip ons felt all kinds of wrong in agressive riding. I thought of the bar conversion, but didnt want to drop value on a nice little bike and possible still not like it.

Im not the only one. I posted a thread on SVrider too, and there were several owners come foreward saying they are having the same issue. Of course the blame is being tossed around tires and suspension probably still, but I dont doubt a bit it was me not being able to find a comfort zone between me and the suspension without throwing alot more money into a bike I wasnt all that thrilled with to begin with.
