100ml is nothing at all, the sump on the SV has so much excess that you wont risk engine damage even if very low in the window when bike is centered, you will probally find that gearchanges become sloppy but its not critical to have it in the center all the time.

if you notice its low then just get right oil and use that, unless its so low that you have to lean the bike the opposite way to get any oil in the window

if you were stuck somewhere with realy realy low oil then car oil is ok but it will mess up the clutch
