Went to the title bureau and BMV and got the title, registration and plates. Then got insurance put on the bike and went out for a ride this evening after work.
All I can say is WOW! The throttle response on the SV650 is amazing. Just blip it and you're already going along at a good pace. Before I knew it, I was going 60 down a surface street and quickly backed off. Went back to the GZ250 and it was like I was standing still. Overall, the riding position isn't as relaxed as the GZ, but it definitely feels more responsive. Brakes are also so much better than my GZ (even after upgrading to ceramic pads). Got some better pictures as well:
To sum it up, riding the SV650 left me with a huge smile on my face.
