Default Hello all

Hello everyone. Am new to the site, just picked up my blue 07 SV650S tuesday. I LOVE IT!!! This is my first bike i have ever owned/Rode. Am having a blast on it. The power is amazing (tho i guess i wouldnt really know being so inexsperienced). I Have about 200 miles on it so far and havent cracked the throttle passed 1/2 way point yet The bike hasnt seen over 8k yet either. Seems very stable and balanced. I was looking to get a 07 Gixxer 600 for my first one but i think i made the right choice with this one as its a blast to ride and somewhat comfortable.

Whats a good exhaust system for this thing and where could i check them out? maybe sound clips to help me out choose. Also the rear sit cover, any websites would be greatly appreciated. Also the Fairing kits for it, a site for that also

Out of curiousity what made you go for a naked, if you favour the more sporty(faired) look e.g. gsxr?

As for exhausts, there is a massive choice out there and people will never agree on which is the best. Personally i favour Yoshimura, but everyone has their favourites. The budget range is Fuel/Carbon Can Company, which for the cost are highly recommended. You may want to look into Scorpion or Remus as well. IMO Yoshimura and Akrapovic are the best options.

Welcome to the site.

Thx for the welcome everyone. I like the Gixxer look but went with the naked because of almost 2 grand difference in the price. The Floor model they had was a Red full fairing SV650S with undertail eliminater kit, and a muzzy? i think muffler. They wanted 7200 for it and it had 1200 miles on it. I didnt like red to begin with so got mine blue for 5600 and will just add those extras peices for less money myself .

Bout 20 min south of the highway signs you see in the intro :P



One more quick question, Ive hit a good size bumps here. It is normal that it sounds like the front mask is loose and rattles? I know its not loose but it deffitnetly makes a noise

Would you describe the noise as a 'clonk'? If so, that's normal...
