I wouldn't settle for a rebel just yet. You can find SVs really cheap. Look around on ebay for a slightly wrecked one. My brother has two. Got one for 1200 that was lightly laid down..running great. This is a 2001. Got another for 200$ with a seized engine. A lot of engines for sale fairly cheap.

They don't have the top speed of the inline bikes but they have really good torque which makes them about more fun than inline 600s. They'll power wheelie in 1st.

Another option may be a dual sport. They sell pretty cheap too and are fun to ride. Anything but the rebel. Ninja 250 even...they're fun in the turns since they're so light.

Is this your first streetbike? Good to see that you're not just going for a supersport right away.

when you've rode a bunch of different bikes, its pretty easy to call the sv 650 gutless....its nothing compared to a bike in the 600cc class, even including my old cbr 600f2...the sv650 is a detuned sportsbike and thats another reason why its gutless. I rode with my buddy in his old 2001 camaro ss (which pulled a best of 13.8 in the quarter) as he pulled away from one of our friends on his sv650 during a free way pull. I'm not knockin the sv 650, their a good bike, but when you compare them to other bikes in the 600cc class they are gutless
