It is designed for the women in mind with the shorter seat height. Kinda a juiced gs500.
I would need to flip thru again , but the SVS in full fairing is still kept correct?

Correct... the SV is dead... the SVS is still in production.

I guess they are just "redefining" the standerd bike to something a little more style points.....:
idk:

Thats quite odd, as it was clearly stated in SR that it was discontinued for 09. But I guess nothing is more first hand than coming from the manufacturer's website....

*EDIT*- Aha!! I caught your fact check Ebbs. When you are on Suzuki's site check all of the sportbikes and it has year tabs on the bottom where you can compare to past years. With the Gixxers it has 09, 08, 07...

Now go to the Standard section to the SV and SV ABS, and it only has 08, 07, 06 tabs....

So in reality... yes the site is still listing the standard SV, but it is listing it as an 08 model. The SV is infact dead!

Yea, my friend has one of the special edition 08 GSXR-600s... where the wheelbase is a tad bit longer than stock. Pearl white/silver paint. Not being a suzuki guy... it grew on me. It'd be a nice option for ur new bike if you could find a low mile 08' Ebbs...
