33bhp - how fast?

What is the top speed of a sv650 restricted to 33bhp and with a restictor kit in how does it effect the accelration of the bike

100ish and yes

Get about 108 out of mine m8, accelerates good, just dies off at about 9000 revs m8. I'm happy wit it. Only got a few weeks left wit . Wooohooo !

About 100 I can get. Accceleration's pretty good. Faster than most cars which is what I enjoy. Heck, you can even wheely it if you're uncareful (after I found out on the second day of riding my SV and not being used to big bikes) .

Stalled at traffic lights, tried to get going again... picked up the revs to ensure I didn't do it again when, dumped the clutch and *BAM* ... up comes the front wheel.

I was just about to post up a thread saying how slow the bike felt while restricted... It has no beans after 65mph. It is good around built up areas but when you get onto the big open roads and want to give it some beans coming out of the bends to keep up with your brothers sv1000 it takes for ever to hit 90mph. I'm sure it will feel fast as hell to someone who isn't used to having a bit more bhp... As mentioned above the bike hits 8 - 9k revs and you pin the throttle back and it just stops accelerating.

about 100 for a 33brake, bandit does 95ish with its washers in.
The test we did was me play catch up on the A696 and the lad on the restricted was lead. 6 bike overtake with 120mph+ to do it

i gt an sv650s and it gets to 90 no probs at all and it is really quick low down, plenty of grunt. bit slow from 95-110. bt thats quick enough! awsum in bends dont listen to these people who say its slow! its not!

Mines slower on acceloration but not slow. Use gear 5 to get to top speed, gear 6 doesnt do much.

Anything over 80/90 will take ages to get too.

My bike when restricted, will happily cruise two up at 85, will pull to 95 and with enough space will eventually reach the magic 100. With just me on it, acceleration is sharp, but not as neck breakingly harsh as full power, but to be honest, on most roads, you don't notice. Full power is sharper, angrier and way faster on the pull away, it gives a two up motorway cruising speed of 120 easily and I can't wait for it to get it's plumbs back.

Remember though, 33 BHP is slightly less than half power, so you will expect it to feel a little different.
