Which model of SV650? Curvy or Pointy?

Try Racevisors.co.uk for a tinted visor.

If it's an 05 it must be a pointy! I believe.

You get so much conflicting information about the right tyre pressures. When we fitted the Pilot Road 2's, the guy put 36 front and rear. It just didn't feel right, so I actually e mailed Michelin to ask what pressures THEY recommended. Got an e mail back too.

Dear Lissa,

Thank you for your e-mail and purchasing Michelin Tyres.

We have the following pressure recommendation -

Front at 34psi
Rear at 36 psi

There is NO requirement to increase for load/speed.

Two Wheel Department

Michelin Tyre plc


We run at that two up, and have to say have never had so much as a twitch even in the wet.

I run mine at 36 front, 42 rear but these are on 12/70/17 front and 190/50/17 rear. The michelin website has a pressure chart on it as well you you can always have a lookon there.
