View Full Version : Full exhaust systems for SV?

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but...

I've just spent a while looking on t'internet for a full exhaust system for an SV650 (obviously...) but all I've found is a dead link to Renegade exhausts, an Arata exhaust that costs more than my bike and endless amounts of end cans.

Does anyone do a full road legal system?

Leo, M4, akrapovich, micron and more all made them at various times. None particularly cheap.

K5 pointy.

Can't believe I forgot that...

Hmm. I missed that on their site, I couldn't see a road legal option. Mind you, I'm getting a bit wall-eyed from searching...

Nice kit though.

Did it fit okay?

Thanks,

The baffle is actually out of a different akro can as they don't make one specific for the sv system.

The fit is perfect. And looks and sounds the dogs. But look out for a power commander also

I'm thinking of going for one of those Mivvi exhausts from Italy... They look pretty good on eBay but they would do, wouldn't they.

Hindle full system

Whilst out 'testing' the new shock yesterday I dropped in on MoreMoto in Bury St Edmunds. They advertise in Performance Bikes and have a dyno so I thought I'd get some good advice there.

Turns out that the dyno bloke has raced an SV in mini-twins so he had a bunch of good ideas. We settled on an M4 system if he can source it in the UK. If not I'll get the Hindle. Both are real purty and should help dump a lot of weight. He reckons that the Suzuki FI is good enough to not need a Power Commander so that's a saving.

Looking forward to the new stuff!

Thanks,

Mark

I didn't buy a baffle, just filed down the "not for road use" (at my MOT testers recommendation) and painted a black band around the end can. Now, according to my MOT garage and the coppers I have been stopped by, it is road legal! LOL

Defo don't bother with the PCIII unless your racing as the performance advantage over an ECU reprogramme is not worth the massive rise in costs.

Do you know how much a reprogrammed ECU is?

When I got my PCIII mapped, I was told a Yoshi tune was £90. If I hadn't already got the PCIII, that's the route I would have taken.
