I'm currently riding an '84 Honda Nighthawk S and am considering upgrading. Despite my bike's antique status, I am still usually #1 or #2 to reach the end of the ride of our local sportbike meetup (depends on whether the CBR600RR came that ride or not, there's just nothing my old Nighthawk can do about that CBR's top speed!). I was thinking of upgrading to a Honda Hawk NT650, but was then reading that the SV650 is supposed to be quite a bit better.
If I were to get an SV650, which one should I look for? Carbs or EFI? Round tube or square tube frame, etc? Naked or faired (I hear the faired bikes have a racier clip-ons and rear-sets)? I don't know much about modern motorcycles.
