Actually, if you ride it all year round and through the bad weather, keeping it in pristine condition is nigh on impossible. |
Here in Indianpolis we have strange weather. I've only taking it out once below freezing. I usually only ride when it's 50 degress or higher. I keep it in excellent condition. Constantly cleaning off dirt, salt, lubing the chain etc.
Other than the suspension (that can easily be fixed) what makes the SV650 a crap bike for stunts in comparison to a GSXR or R1 (other than the obvious power differences). Why would a wheelie be unthinkable on a SV650s but not on a GSXR?
