get fast reactions, most modern bikes depend on whos fastest off the clutch.

Clutch, revs, technique and practice

TBH I expect you'll be faster from a standing start away, the SV is much easier to launch than a SS600 is. Theres only so much power you can use to get away quickly, if you've got alot it just makes it harder as you spend more time trying to keep the front wheel down rather than driving the bike forward.

Compared to my GSXR, my SV is much easier to get away quickly on.

true but once he hits that power band it would'nt matter(or would it)

No it wont... TBH you're never going to get an SV motor to run reliably at SS600 levels of BHP, if you want a faster bike go and buy one IMHO. One thing you could do to give you a bit more get up and go from a standing start is to drop the gearing on your SV, if you have a search you'll find plenty of threads on how to do it and what bits you'll need, TBH thats probably the best and cheapest mod, rather than chasing horsepower gains...

sounds like this i want to be faster than him is going to end in tears :smt085

a smaller front sprocket, R6 throttle,race can & chopping the wheelie wires will all help.

but if you really need to be faster get a faster bike:p
