Nope. Didn't exist in the early days of the SV either though. It had to be built.

Must have changed then, because 5 years ago it was like 50 lbs heavier. |

We looked at the Hyosung 650 but went with an R6 instead. Seemed like a decent bike for the $$.

What's the better deal- $6K for a new Hyosung 650, or $3500 for an SV that's a couple of years old?
Personally, I think I'd go with the SV. It's a proven bike with a ton of aftermarket support. Right now I look at the Hyosung the same way I look at cheap Chinese knockoffs- there needs to be a significant price difference to justify me taking the risk. New, a Hyosung and an SV are so close in price that I would just buy the one I know works- the SV (or Gladius, Ninja 650, FZ6, etc).
