Sorry it was coming up fuzzy. How does it do against the sv650

Overall they're pretty equal I'd say. The SV's have more torque, but the chassis is better on the GSXR. Some of my favorite battles this year were with SV riders. I think it basically comes down to personal preference between the two.

do they feel like they have a bad miss when taking of from a stop, or do they fell pretty normal. I am looking at a sv650 for a 450. Trying to get all the info I can on the two so I can make a good decision. Would like to purchase one by the end of the week.

It feels pretty normal actually, or maybe I'm just used to it. 
Most people expect them to feel rough, but they're usually surprised at how smooth they are.

Fack! I knew it wouldn't last, but was foolishly hoping it would stay around until Jan/Feb so I could use Uncle Sam's money for a new race bike.
Congrats to the new owner.

I have a very similar bike that may be available around then -- depending on if I ride it again or do something different, TBD. Same make/year, #2 cylinder cam-grind, not ratted, slipper, full exhaust, floating rotors, spare wheels, keyless turn-key. Not posting yet -- but keep your eyes peeled ...
