I agree, Miguel. With the success of the V-strom, Suzuki is trying to expand the market to those who do not wish to fold- up to ride on an SV650. Still, with a skid plate, this looks like a fun dirt-road bike, just not a true "trailie", not near enough suspension. A way-cool commuter, though, don't you think? Interesting to see how it does (sales-wise) against the FZ600.
