SV650 - it's a cracking engine!
 

Not used the SV for a couple of months until yesterday (Bought a Triumph Legend - 900 triple a few months back. Hey, I am allowed as over 40. just :rolleyes:).

Like being on the SV for the first time all over again :p and compared to the Triumph really pokey and free reving - albeit it is like comparing Apples and Oranges.

I had forgotten how high up the weight is for slow speed manouvering :( and the bars are now too low for my tastes :(..........BUT I still love :smt035that engine :cool: and I really wish I had a decent can on the end to release some base. and some much higher bars.

I should really sell the SV though......but just have not got around to it - kinda regret not having got an SV1000, but I do much prefer raised handlebars. P/ex on a V Strom 650 or 1000 maybe? Must Google to see if one could get aftermarket noise for those :smt067


BTW interesting to see that the 2009 SV sport has dropped the red seat in favour of black :cool:
