Would you drive in one of these?

I dunno. I disagree with the it's safer than a motorcycle argument. I'm not sure I want to be crushed in small steel box.
I'll take riding with Betty any day over something like that. But as a car person, someone may like that more than a regular car.

November 17, 2012. Once again I'll be back in San Mateo, doing a few gear seminars for everyone to enjoy .
Unfortunately I won't be on the show circuit except for this one show since it's practically in my backyard.
I'll be giving my seminar on the main stage on Saturday, November 17, 2012 at 2:00pm and 4:30pm. So mark your calendars and come by and say hi. I don't have a booth specifically, but I'll be wandering around, catching up with friends and checking out the show. Message me on twitter or text me at 415-857-GEAR if you want to connect!
If you haven't been to one of my seminars, I go over my shopping tips in detail and give you all the information you need on buying motorcycle gear (for men and women!).
It's also going to be my birthday weekend, so it would be awesome to see as many of you there as possible!
Well, at least it looks much better than before. Maybe because it's a dark color? That lame white/blue concoction when they first introduced the SFV in 2009 was horrific! I don't know if they were trying to appeal to female riders or what, but it was hideous.
I haven't ridden one, and I'd certainly love to, just to compare it to the older generation models. I absolutely positively LOVE my SV. It does a little bit of everything really well. Just the fact that the SFV only has a 3.1 gallon (the SV has 4.5!) tank is enough for me to not like it. Not sport touring friendly. That's what's so awesome about the SV. It's a great touring bike!
I'm so glad I have one now, because if I had to buy a new Suzuki today, the only one I would consider (not necessarily buy, but just consider) buying is a VStrom.
Luckily there are plenty of used SVs to go around....
You can check out the entire 2013 lineup for Suzuki on their website. Meh.
