Restricting a Pointy?
 
I've just purchased an Sv650s 2007 and am only 18, therefore I need to restrict it..

What's the best route to take in getting the restrictor fitted? is it a pricey job!?

No.
Some insurers require one, ask first, find an insurer that does not require one. Or one which will accept a dyno printout or something.

Bikesure and Carole Nash I can personally attest did not require one.

No, if your bike is restricted you are legal. Have fun on your new bike!

MCE - avoid.

& you don't need to tell your insurer that your restricted they know by your age already it's just in the event of a crash you have to prove it was fitted before the crash. (Touch wood you don't have one)

Bennetts - aviod them when on a restricted licence, they make it look cheap then when you call they say. "We notice your meant to be restricted", they class it as a Modification & effects the bikes performace which they deem to be worthy of a £450 increase.

Ohh if you choose bennetts, Remove any un-factory fitted stickers. :)
