A U-turn on a K5 S...impressive...most impressive. How big was the road by the way? I really wouldn't do the test on my bike.
I did my test on a motorised BMX...far far easier.

Yes...the U-turning abilities of the the SV650S K5 is more space consuming than most....500's?...Yes...they do have their uses. Shame they get overlooked when the horsepower crowd get busy.
