Default MCN review of old and new SV650Ss

There it is in black and white................ SV605S K4 (well K3 actually from the photos) is "FASTER AND SHARPER" than a SV605S 1999.

Hmmmm, did you notice that the "faster and sharper" was blue as well?


Whistles happily to himself as he leaves the page.....................

And if you look at the other page it says that the old shape is NOT that much slower. What is it 2hp difference? I've increased my speed by removing the excess weight of those big indicators Plus I don't see the sharper as a plus point!

I think my next mod is eat less pies and cake...

No one ever disputed it had not improved certain areas over the old shape. We just think it look bloody hideous.
