We all know how hard-core you are thought Barwell...
^ hardly, but its true about the riding thing i have never felt like im fighting to stay on the bike, it could be because im 16.5stone that i sit in the bike and not on it

Perhaps, but, a KTM Super Duke is not like an SV at all, so, not really comparable.

16.5stone!? Are you like 6'3 or something!?

I know an SV650 is supposed to do 121, I think mine is supposed to do 136, so, it isn't much more on the top end, but, I think a Thou's 0-60 is devastating to a 650
