I haven't got any good pics at the moment. I'll clean her tomorrow if the weathers good and get some decent pics then.
It doesn't make a lot more horsepower than the SV but there is a lot more torque. Overtaking very rarely involves shifting to 5th now. ![]() |

Supersports bikes. I'm not into having to ride above 9000rpm to get real power out of an engine. 1-2BHP was a bit of a daft figure but you get the idea.
As for pics. I've just cleaned her and got the camera out. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now I just need a carbon tank protector instead of that cheap and nasty one. The clutch cover is a nightmare to keep clean. If it rains once it gets surface rust. Good old Autosol has done me proud today though ![]() |

No, I don't. I've got and have owned plenty of fours, sports and otherwise - they simply do not work in the manner you describe.

![]() Otherwise, beautifull bike! I really like the bellypan, and the #1 on the heck! I was standing between Monster and SV when I was buying, but (as you might have understood already) I went for the SV. |
