1000 exhaust wont fit, bikes might look the same but they are very different underneath.
Theres a few companies that make a twin exhaust for the 650 have a browse around the exhaust section towards the bottom of the forum.

Nope SV1000 exhaust won't fit, and a twin pipe set up is for aesthetics only on the SV650!

The TL series engine's cylinder offset is the other way round from the SV, so the systems aren't at all compatible except for end-cans being bodgeable.
Twin cans are only there to make it more expensive to fix if you bin it on the left |

At the AR I saw a curvy with a twin set up, but up the side. It caught my eye, as you don't usually see that.
Besides, twin exhausts ( either side) are a bugger for getting symetrical..the raptor is a pain in the ass to line up.

It pains me to say it, but he's right, it's true!

Cagiva Raptor 650 has a twin pipe set up & the engine is borrowed from the SV650 ..
