If you want to spend to dosh then thats what will give it to you but i'd save it like everyone else says its not really worth it. If you want a good V engine sports then......

Re: Increasing BHP on SV

I heard that the suzuki ECUs are reprogrammable so a power commander isn't neccersary...

I wouldnt bother. Spend your money on suspension upgrades and that way you'll get more from the bhp you already have.

otherwise Full exhaust system, some kind of performance filter, and then use a power commander to remap the fueling will give you a hanfull more bhp. But its alot of money for not much more bhp.

+1 about suspension.

Best power mod you can do for money is fit bored oversize throttle bodies, $350.

The standard SV650 fueling is sh*t!!! a PC would definately make it fuel better which sometimes finds the odd horse here and there. everytime i get off my honda onto it i think its broken!!!

Re: Increasing BHP on SV

What about fitting the 1000cc lump in place of the 650?

If you're very lucky you might find a cheap good engine, but is it really worth the time and effort? Especially when a good GSXR is so easy to get... :D

So says the girl with the 33BHP restriction ;-)

If it's running right, there's nowt wrong with it.

Also you can do yosh box map, no need to add parts with PC3

Cheaper to buy a TL thou, falco or mille and spend the saving with mods and tuning

It runs fine its just on off throttle fueling is a dog. The honda pulls smooth from closed to open in every gear. They do know how to fuel a bike them boys
