That's definetly not what i get on my pointy (thought it was standard sprockets). Can anyone confirm other than Scoobs on his IL4

Thats pretty much what i get on my K5, not sure about lower down the revs but in 6th gear I get about 90mph at 6000rpm and 104 at 7000 rpm. So near enough those figures.

That would be me :)

I think the link might be down mind? :( So you might want to re-host :)

Ah, so it was you, sorry I completely forgot. Yes that link no longer works, so I've hosted them here if anyone's interested:

http://www.bureaunet.com/temp/GearRa...ator_SV650.exe (SV 650)

http://www.bureaunet.com/temp/GearRa...tor_SV1000.exe (SV 1000)

Great little programmes, enabling you to play to your heart's content.

Thanks, so my sprockets must have been changed. Can you tell me your average mpg you get - I know it's all down to riding style but if most of my riding is commuting, I don't use 1st very much I wondered if 53mpg could be improved upon (without changing my style)

I'm not really the person to ask about MPG, i don't do commuting as such, even my journey to work is all country lanes that i can play on. I usually get about 110 miles till the light comes on (frequently i get alot less), whatever that works out at i don't know.

You want more (In that bloke from Oliver's voice)!!

I get 46mpg on average, that does me. If you want more, then buy a different bike. As for the ratios. The naked and faired do have different ratios. 1 tooth difference on the rear.

I got 90 miles on a track day :shock: so it's probably not hurting my pocket too much anyway!

I've never done a track day but i've had days where the fuel lights come on at 90 when i've just been out for a spin. It just shows you've been having fun. I'm not really bothered about fuel consumption i use what i use i'm not gonna change the way i ride and be bored outta my skull just cos it might save me a few pennies.

I was mostly interested in what speed the limiter kicks in in each gear - that's the only speedo I'm interested in on the track :-D

But why? The SV is long past making maximum power by then.
