Not yet, I think Northwind (another member) would like the motor though. Its maximum power has been 96bhp and 62ft according to the last dyno print out I done, she's completely stripped now and I am aiming for 100+.

A can and a gearing alteration would be the best bet, then work on the suspension as this is the SV's achilles heel!

No ASBO yet, and yes she does sound a little menacing at times when the engine starts hunting. The 'rip snarling' comes from having a full system with a can that has no perforated inner tube and no baffling material, basically a straight pipe from the cylinders (Honda MotoGP'ish).
