Input on Mods
 

1.What bolts ons and easy kits can I add to get the most H.P out of a 2009 SV650S .

2. How much H.P does yours have?

3. Can you get 100 H.P out of a 650?

Re: Input on Mods
 

The answer to number 3 is no.

Re: Input on Mods
 

1. basics, cam change, air filter,full system, remap.
2. don't have one any more, but back when I did about 80 or so.
3. perhaps.....but for how long I wouldn't want to guess, but practically speaking no is thr right answer.

1) There isnt a bolt on or easy kit. Like others have already told you, changing your sprockets will increase your acceleration without major mods.

2) Standard, but BHP isn't everything.

3) Possible, but it wont last for very long.

Perhaps you should be looking for another bike with more "bhp"...

Easiest induction and exhaust power mods are:

-A new air filter, BMC or K&N
-A new exhaust, Full system. JHS racing in Bristol recommend an M4 full system
-A Power Commander or maybe just fuel re-map.

This would be very expensive to achieve though. I think that exhaust system is just a tadge sort of £700 and a power commander nearly £300.

One day I reckon I'll be doing these mods myself but for now I'm happy with a louder end can and a BMC filter. For now I'm upgrading suspension and brakes first... just seems the more sensible option.

The easiest way is to get the SV1000.

Yeah I think ill start with exhaust .....lol.

Hey madmax i saw you raving about your insurance quotes on other 600's. You mind letting me know your age andddd roundabout quotes on the bikes you checked?

Ive got a full race system and a power commander on my k9 svs and thats the most u will get out of it with out a lot of work and money. The power is plenty for the bike especially with standard brakes and suspension

Re: Input on Mods
 

Just keep in mind, insurance.
Im sure i read in your other thread that you got an sv650 because of the insurance costs of a more powerfull bike.
But you need to let the insurance company know about any mods you make to your bike, and im sure all the changes you want to make to increase the power are going to impact on the insurance.

Not much if you shop around at renewal, but some companies will nail you for it if you declare them mid-policy.

Best bang for buck:
Cam swap
Bored out TBs
Exhaust system
Air filter

You are talking serious mods to get 100bhp. Do it :)


Not that I like it when people tell you what to do when asking a simple question, but just to stick my oar in, suspension is everything. Will make you MUCH faster than engine mods. I have full M4, JHS stage 2 cams, BMC filter, probably 80+bhp. If I was to start again I would buy a race shock and GSXR front FIRST and worry about loud cans and other stuff later.

Suspension upgrade, good rubber and big gahoonas is the equation for fast SV riding. BHP is a bonus

Re: Input on Mods
 

What about NOS?? It'd be a right laugh.........

You'd add enough gas to destroy the engine and still get murdered in every way by guys on £1000 worth of old missile.
