I've never met a car that can't be beaten up to 60, though I'm sure some exist.
Hardly surprising when the SV does 0 - 60 in 3.6 seconds

The 1000SVS goes 0 - 60 in 3.4 seconds, which is faster than a Gixxer 1000

I would scrape my forehead against the floor if I could find somebody who could make my SV do 0-60 in under 4 seconds. That's if it survived.
Under 5 isn't that hard. It takes a bit of work and a surface you know you can trust, but it can be done. Under 4, I'm not at all convinced of.

So anyway, did I complete the derail?

Assuming my Veypor's set up right, mine did it in 4.33 last time I tried, despite being handicapped by rider incompetence (my launches are rotten...) That was with the full system but terrible jetting, so actually down on peak power from stock, though with a slightly better curve, and up a tooth on the rear. A rider with a better start would easily have that under 4, though I wouldn't want to guess how far.
