Top Supported Bike?

[wideload]

Half million XS & TX 650s were manufactured. Used, NOS and aftermarket parts are readily available. Part prices are reasonable. User and technical support groups (not many rider groups though) are numerous.

Do you own another bike with better support?

Yep--2003 Suzuki SV650. Check out www.svrider.com some time. Tech support on that board is professional grade. All kinds of aftermarket goodies are available, and cheap used parts are easy to come by. The SV/Gladius series is in many ways the modern counterpart of the old XS650: a moderately priced workhorse with sporting and racing potential.
