That’s so funny that in the begging of the Video I seen you live in an apartment building b4 you said that other bike was stolen .. I always recommend everyone that if you don’t have a home or rent a home don’t buy a motorcycle for that reason off being stolen so much.. you have to consider how much your motorcycle weighs the 8R is very light it take 2 person to pick it up .. the gps.. there’s a scanner that they use to scan for the gps b4 they take it .. but happy for you on your new bike .. hopefully it stays with you for ever

Link?

Uh-crop-o-vitch

The M4 is awesome…

What kind of gas mileage do you get?

your SV looked stunning

Love the bike. Bought the silver/red. Did the tail delete kit so far, but I've only had the bike 12 days. 400 miles and already spent $340 due to a screw in the tire. It is what it is. Gotta pay to play. Love the bike.

Don't think I've seen a rider ride in 3rd or 4th gear at high rpm down a highway. You're burning more fuel and creating more vibration.

I would put one of those thick ass kryptonite chains on it and anchor it down personally. Yes they can cut through it (with time), but they would be there a while, it might not be worth it to them.

Oh shit I ride these same roads. Capital power sports almost sold me on an mt07 but I bought the silver gsx-8r instead over at team power sports by the airport.

Sounds like a sewing machine.

My SV650 also got stolen a while back, and I'm looking at the GSX-8R now. Nice to hear your perspective as a fellow former SV650 rider!

Can someone confirm if 10k sounds like the otd price I'm looking at this bike here in cali and the advertised prices are 7.5k does that even out to 10k otd?

Love this i bought the same exact one color, and all i need is some accessories

Get yourself a tst integrated tail light!

Nice vid. I bought one too. It's a great all round package which is more than the sum of it's parts. It defies it's spec sheet for sure. I also put on the Suzuki adjustable levers, Powerbronze tail tidy, Evotech radiator guard & an Akropovic full system on mine too. I'm still running it in with about 800 miles on it so far & very pleased with it to date.

Check the one I used to have out. Had to get rid of it I didn’t like it at all

Great video, keep it up man. Let's see some more

I like the dash

Thanks for the perspective/video! Have family just outside Raleigh, the town of Angier. Wanted to know if you've experienced any vibrations - foot pegs, handlebars in particular that might have caught your attention? Thanks!

Do these mods work on the current 2017 sv650?

I have the same bike and love it, I got a full system too but I got mine from blackwidow exhaust. They are from the UK and the best part is that the full system was like $500. The exhaust shipped from the UK to the US in 2 days very fast shipping...

Sik

I had Yoshimura sp? on my 2001sv, paid $268. Sounded waaaaay better than this Akrapovic unit. 👎👎👎

What's that constant buzzing sound?

Doesnt sound as good as the old one even with the akra so disappointing and that rattle would drive me insane!

I'm sure it won't throw a rod

Dang did the rear sway bar allowed you to rotate the rear that much ?

What tires are being used? Thanks for sharing.

Lovely video, Which phone mount is that? Looks good.

You did no justice to that akrapovic exhaust. I got the same on my SV650 and it sounds awesome. For those asking about removing the DB killer... I cant see it on mine so I assume you'd have to take the whole thing apart to remove it.

Daamn that exhaust ist bad wtf 😕 leovince is worlds apart 🤨

Man that was underwhelming.

Hey there. I like your phone mount and would love to get it for my sv. Which one is it? :)

What bike shops do you recommend in the DMV area that can do this kind of work

Do you know what size rivets i need to take out the db killer on this exhaust?

I’ve now done pipe,filter,velocity stacks,flash and a quick shifter. Outstanding. If you’ve now done these mods you’ll know what I mean when I say it completely changes the bike. From fun to serious. Oh, did the suspension last year. Also did the 180 on the rear and it works fine and certainly the way to go👍

Cool vid! What phone mount is that? Looks really clean

:s

Sounds worse

Hello! May I ask you what phone mount you use? Much appreciated. cheers

Looks good. You should make a longer video that lets us hear the exhaust with the engine cold (rev'd a little), then hot (rev'd more) and maybe some on-bike footage. I'm doing about the same thing you are , but started with a regular SV instead of the X because I am going for a different look and didn't want clip-ons. It will be interesting to see how our builds differ when they are finished.

Great video mate. Glad you mentioned Dave Moss Tuning. A go to for anyone in the motorcycling world.

Its so quiet. Lol Try to decat your bike. You have use a pipe that too long! Slipons sojnds better on shorty and midsize

I dont think you like it

Great video! Random question, what city are you driving through? I love the street layout and architecture.

Hi! Sorry for my english, i’m french. Can you say me what is your cellular support ? Thanks !!

K&N & PC-V with Dyno Jet power shifter.

The GSX-R fork is not a good match for the SV.

Speedworks in Dover, DE is one of the best SV tuning shop that there is.
