My brand new SV 650

Hi everyone!
This is my brand new sv650. Picked it up for 6790 eur. It is my 4th bike, after a gs500, duke 390, and an er6n.
I wanted a characterful, reliable and affordable middleweight naked, and the sv just ticked all boxes.
I did 500 km on the bike, and here are my pros and cons:
+
The engine is a peach.
Very stable when cornering, compared to my previous bikes.
Price. Even the RE 650 was more expensive.
-
Seat: it is hard and pushes you towards the tank. It will take it to a shop to put gel inserts and make it a bit flatter.
Front brake: softer than the er6’s brake. In the future i will upgrade the brake lines, for more feel.

What are your opinions on the bike, and what mods are most common?
