Default my new sv1000s

Got myself a sv1000s (2004) with bos cans on it. They are very quiet. Anyone else had them? Need to play with suspension (its on standard swettings), to give it a bit more composure. Any ideas?(im 14.5 stone)

Its no as fast as I thaught it would be(last bike was 650s 99), but perhaps i was expecting too much.

CHEERS

0 - 60 its only about half a second faster than the 650 but it 80+ you notice the big diffrence. you cant under estimate the lil 650s i could ride mine much faster on B roads than i can the 1000.

I think you will notice the speed once you get back on a 650. Sit at 90 and gently lean on the throttle, you get the kind of response you got from pining the 650.

Wind it open at 90 and you know it isnt a 650.

Don't get really loud cans. Quite a few on the sv1000 can sound awful - ear piercing instead of a low burble. Saw too many of those today.
