FP stacks do make a difference, I have them fitted to my SV, the amount of actual/overall power they add/take from the bike, I have no idea as I haven't had it dyno'd.......

However......

They certainly change the feel of the bike, especially in the midrange, feels more torquey.
They change the induction noise too.

I fitted my SV1000 snorkel and K+N today, so may change the feel again, TOO much salt on the roads to try at the moment.

Then again, I also have an aftermarket exhaust system and a remapped ecu, so who knows....

you are only moving a power hump from one place to another.

it takes serious amounts of cash and time to make improvements to the sv650 and for the gains v power its not worth it.

if you want more power get a more powerful bike to begin with.

ride an sv650 for what it is a nice vtwin and save your money for days out or better tyres etc.etc.

Exactly. Never said they actually give more power as I cannot back that up with any facts or figures.

But, as I wrote, there is a noticeable difference in midrange. Which can only be a good thing.

I had a "sports-bike", came back to an SV because it is exactly what you said, a nice v-twin. I'd add more to that, as there is a more important factor to consider.....they are a FUN bike.
