how low can you lean an curvy SV650s
 
..... quite a long way, my gay bands are now non existant, but there is a down fall to this! if your going to lean it that low, say bye bye to your foot rest stud, and the bottom half of your foot rest, and the rear brake pedal, and the paint on your lower fairings!! lol

this is what my bike looks like after going round the corners too fast!! lol

Wow, that is damn cool! How did you get the confidence to do that? what kind of surface was it on? track?

slowly going faster and faster, and hours and hours of practice :o)

i have never taken my bike on a track, this was on the local industrial estate, and the road surfaces are not that smooth either, just keep an eye out for the pot holes! lol

An industrial estate, so what were yo doing then? just going round and round in circles seeing how low you could go??? :scratch:

As you say, you are lucky that didn't touch the can or summin, lift the rear end and spit you off!! :shock:

I didn't know there was an industrial estate in Bedfordshire that had a decent enough surface to do this. The ones I've found are normally covered with screws, nails, lose stones etc...

At least if I see a yellow curvy with it's side scuffed up I'll know who it is. :D
