Between this thread and reading a lot of reviews, I'm leaning towards the SV650 (dependent on actually going out to check it out of course). I've found lots on kijiji for a decent price, but none of them are noting that they have ABS.
My first street bike was a 2002 SV650s (no ABS). All these years later, I wouldn't have done it any differently. It's always been a "Top Value" and "Gentle but Capable" bike. I really do like the GS500 as a 1 or 2 year starter bike, but you could realistically enjoy an SV forever.

And in my opinion, ABS is overrated. I wouldn't pay extra for it - I'd buy better gear, lol.
