gave my baby some head
after a major breakdown on the m40 towards london last year, i finally managed to go to the ace cafe and get some lunch. poor mrs. was slaving away in romsey,s very own superstore. i came back through central london to london eye, hamersmith, m3 and home. well all that stop starting in traffic light city drove me bonkers so on the m3 i opened her up, hem, hem!xxx mph on the clock, before i had to slow down for traffic and gilt. was still accelerating and not reved out. i bought the bike with a scorpion [ i,m told ] stainless race system. since owning the bike i,ve raised the tank on spacers and removed the rubber insulation under tank, pipercross air filter, [ much cheaper than bmc, k & n.} iridium plugs, nikko racing g-pack module, { new on the bay at £25 ]. well those few things seem to have given the bike a new lease of life, the air filter and exhaust responsable for most of it i think. just goes to show that you dont have to spend a lot of money to get a more responsive sv 650.

I'm sure that G pack adds at least 200 bhp ;)
Scorpion don't make a full system AFAIK. |

It'd be interesting if you could reverse the changes, one by one, to see which made the biggest difference. Fancy it? :smt044

The only way you'll be certain that all these mods are giving you the extra ponies, is to stick it on a dyno :rolleyes:
