Honda is more durable than Suzuki, but that is usually after 5-10 years not after 2. If you have a Triumph dealer in your area also look at a Triumph Speed Four 2004-2006 they are a great value. If you are looking for a used motorcycle the Suzuki will be cheaper and think about how long you will keep it.He came $1000 of MSRP but, that is just $500 less than MSRP of a 08 sv650 I would expect he will really come off that price.
