Great bike, I'd be interested in getting it however I have to sell my own first

They're good bikes... it won't last long!

How is the sv in the twisties? I've heard it's quite a light bike so does it corner well? or is it not that easy to maneuver?

That really depends what your used to I guess.... They do handle well and feel light, front feels a bit vague to me but they are very comfy

Put linear fork springs and decent oil in them, and the front end doesn't feel TOO bad. They're a good bike.

Cant actually just biff them on,you need shims/spacers for calipers etc not to mention the forks sorted to suit not to mention pre radial calipers or not and lines to suit.That aside before looking at Gixxer forks i would get in touch with the likes of Robert Taylor and see what he can do with the oem forks.After buying a set of GSXR forks/radial calipers for my TL i dont mind admitting my annoyance at hearing what said bloke could have done with the oem TL ones.
