Probably very biased, but I think the SV is a cracking trackbike, granted they can take some cash to make real good, but once there what a thing to ride!!!!

My Sv can lap Anglesey at a pace that would get top five in the SS600 race and up till last weekend was the fastet bike round Three sisters this year

I could rattle on all night about my love affair with my SV, but the missus is watching so I'll have to tone it down a bit.....

Horses for corses really, but I will say some of those £500 steelies need some proper TLC and in truthfullness are they that much more FUN?.......nah

EDIT: Just watched the rest of the Vid (had to post the 35s comment as that was cool! ). Good vid .. and yes in parts, that is a good illustration of getting held up spoiling your flow/laps*. I see you have more videos, gonna watch one or two more


*I actually wanted to grab the bars - put you in a different part of the track and flick your fingers off the front brake leaver at times mind!! ... you could have wasted so many more of them with only slight adjustments ... good safe and confident riding overall though good to watch
I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the comments.

The guy with the orange patch on his leathers? I hadn't noticed that before, but I see what you mean. He seemed to be doing ok though, I think the guy on the black gsxr was holding him and me up. We're not allowed to pass on the inside going into corners, and the black gsxr was taking such wide corner entries that I couldn't figure out how to pass him. Maybe next time.
