Congrats, you will enjoy it, just need to get that cat off for a proper sound. Even when I switched the end can on mine it sounded a bit high pitched and wheezy, so I got a full system and never looked back! Just get one right away and don't waste money on only a slip on!

Argggh, no don't tempt me with add ons and conversions already, I need to ease myself in gently even if it is a bit squealy with the standard kit, now mid way through the summer, that could be a whole different story :smt077

Oooh it sounds so beautiful with the full system (obligatory baffle fell out and placed under the seat for the duration of my journey)!

Except the seat is in the house :o

i went from a sv to a 750 after my first year riding and love every minute of it. I would have gone for a k7 to save money and get the standard stubby exhuast

Sweet bike buddy and looks better in the flesh.

Don't think your mad. Go with your heart not your head lol. I jumped from a SV650S to a GSXR K8 Thou after test riding her.

As fizzy says below 7000 it just plods along. Anything above that and things get interesting :eek:

Enjoy buddy ;)

Had the full arrow system on the SRAD and it sounded beautifully evil. :smt077

Well after a few more weeks and 510 miles on the odo I can honestly say it is a fantastic bike, love the power, control, handling and looks, have destickered it completely now (those fairing labels are a total nightmare!!) added some black adjustable levers, CF heatguard and a yoshi filler cap just to give it a bit of individuality (although I think there are only a few brown ones in the UK anyway so I guess that keeps it individual enough :)

Just going to get the rearsets and pillion pegs powdercoated black at the first service and that will be it for the mods for now, the exhaust will just have to wait a while :)
