MCN Centre page Standard SV650s WINS RACE! - SV650.org

01-11-06, 11:17 AM

Just wanted to let you know I just picked up MCN and whilst it's full of drivel I still enjoy reading it.

Anyway - got to the centre page and Adam Childs enteres a stone stock SV650s into 2 races, sound of thunder and minitwins, comes 3rd in one and 1st in the other!

It's a good read and nice to see a bit of praise going to the SV rather than the usual - " The old SV just can't cut it anymore" you usually read in reviews!

Also a great A4 stood up wheely phot which looks pretty cool.

Pick up a copy guys and girls it's good pub discussion winning material!!!

Is this at a new era meet?

If so did he mention how many actual bikes were out there in the mintwins class as from what i saw at snetterton there was only one mintwin out there with a bunch of desmo-due bikes chasing while 20hp down.

without reading it my gut feeling says MCN is once again living up to it's reputaion as ''more crap than news''

yup t new era there were only one, the rest were desmo due bikes entered into the same class but are some 10bhp down at least!. Typical MCN!!!

So is that why the SV won?!

Seems a bit unfair racing against bikes who are less powerful. Desmo due who?

Desmodue = comparatively cheap(NO RACING IS CHEAP!!!) racing in 2 classes. i think one's for almost standard Ducati 600ss + 600 monster and one's for 620 fuel injected Ducati's watched a couple of rounds at Snetterton looked quite good fun.

ah it was run at Auto66 at Cadwell...not a club really any minitwins race with!. In fact there were 3 in his class..one a ducati monster. Looks like he was doing 1.50m laps...where as a quick mintwin with Bemsee did 1.38's round there!!!

The point I was making is its good advertising for the SV and not like the usual negitives they say, just cos its a few years old.

Anyway its still a good read and a few good shots of the SV.
