Default Pretty cool SV vid.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLryX...eature=related

I dont remember my SV sounding like that... Guess im used to the 60*V now.

Anyway enjoy it just shows that a SV650 isnt slow and can be easy to get the knee down on. Though anyone should be able to if they have a road like that.

Yeah, I was thinking how the guy with the camera was about 5 times as fast as the guy on the thou.

Pretty poor riding if you ask me, was wobbly and jerky all over the place, not smooth at all.

Well----To come to the riders defence----That was an extremely technical and long bit of road.Unless your name happens to be Shakey or something similar I reckon it would take lots and lots of practice to get good there.

Is there anywhere in the UK like that I wonder?

I'd love to go there (assuming it wasn't full of traffic!!!!)

There are a few other video's of people going over there and most of them you can tell dont know the road that well as they are all a little like that guy. The (initial) camera bike is the rider that I was refering to, he does seem to have a clue.

You can shift a bit and be smooth without knowing the road...
