Well they don't share 'Johnson' as a surname, so I'm stumped.

Afternoon all.

Good to hear you're enjoying it so far. Just wait until the restrictors are removed, despite it's age it'll PI55 on any poxy old 650 V-twin!

Cheers.

Ahhhh .. CBR600FM!!

I had one just like that!! (well slightly diff colours and a 95!)

Is that a race can or a road/baffled can? ... they can sound quite fruity on full song!!

Unrestricted, they have about 90hp (rwhp), that is about 50% more than the SV650 ... roll on derestriction!!
