I had a R100RT complete Krauser fairing/hard bags. Getting to to points was a pain in the neck, but valves were easy. And it ran like a dream. Definitely a dependable bike. Nice road manners, excellent ergonomics. But it was not nimble like my GS850G (Vetter faired, no bags), and not nearly as much fun.
The more I look at that SV, the more I like it. It screams fun. I think it's going away in favor of a parallel twin closer to 800cc. But they have one exactly like your photo above in stock (2024 model) locally just under $8000
