[Nicky S]

so my sv is going to be a write off and im looking at geting a new one just got a couple of questions. on my old sv the guy i bought it off did something to the ECU he removed 2 or 3 wires which stops the ECU restrting the gears or somthing. just woundering if any one know any thing about this???


also what restiter kit is the the one just with the 2 silver washers that sit under the carbs ??

How is your SV going to be a write off? I saw the pics and it didn't look THAT bad?

When the insurance company add all the new price parts together it tends to go this way, best to repair it yourself with secondhand parts.

I thought that is what he was doing anyway...repairing it himself. I should probabily read threads all the way through though

I would not waste money buying the product and I would not waste time DIY'ing it either!

The Suzuki SV650 (Curvy and Pointy) is only very slightly retarded, there are no gains to be had other than the imaginary butt dyno thinking otherwise. It has been proven and tested a countless amout of times, it makes no performance increase!!!

The products are aimed at bikes which actual do have a lot of a ignition retard, the problem is the product list lists the SV650 in its fitting guide and everybody reads the hype and product blurb and instantly beleives it will do the same to their SV650. This is utter crap, the product description/blurb is aimed at GSXR's, etc and not the SV650!

Countless tests by proper and experienced SV650 tuners have proven it does not work and the people that say it does state the same thing "I fitted it and went for a ride a felt a real difference", this is your imaginary butt dyno telling you you have just increased the power by 10bhp because you fiddled with something!!! Utter rubbish....


Sorry, rant over now and I am climbing back into my straight jacket....
