2017 Suzuki SV650 Yoshimura Exhaust

I did a quick video with a GoPro and a Pro mic from Polar pro. This mic is not good, need to get something better. Would appreciate recommendation on what mic to buy.
I had the mic behind me on the saddle and for some reason it picked up some horrible mechanical noise from the bike that ruins the audio a bit more.

Thanks for the most glorious Suzuki V-twin sound. It has nourished my soul in lockdown. 👍🏽

I haven't thrown a leg over a bike for more than 2 years now. Somehow this satisfied my craving and soothed me at the same time. Awesome bike and great scenery. Might get one next year.

[@VictorEkroth]

I´m happy that you enjoyed it!

[@josh4u319]

Cheers, bro! I wonder, have you tried comparing the Yoshi with the Scorpion Serket Taper exhaust? Kinda not liking the size of the Yoshi too much, but it sounds mean!

[@stylin60es]

Get back on it! Cheers

[@EricSchnabel]

This video sounds exactly like my '17 sv650 and I love this. Wish I could find such nice roads to ride on. Your video will definitely lift my spirits in the winter.

[@ДядяВолк-к9э]

It sounds very good... ...and AWESOME scenery!

[@VictorEkroth]

+Tatsuya Shiina Thank you! I wish I could have recorded a video in Norway a week before, truly an amazing experience. The bike is almost to loud in the tunnels (without DB killer).

[@ДядяВолк-к9э]

Thank you very much for your reply♪ I've never ever seen such A BEAUTIFUL scenery before. I'm looking forward to your recent post.I'll be back again!!! (When you edit the video(s),I heard that...It'll be hard work for you.Please don't strain yourself.) (↑動画の編集は大変だと聞いたことがあります。くれぐれも無理をなさらぬようお願い致します。)

[@PUcmw11]

Hey Victor! Like you, I have a 2017 SV650ABS. I am trying to figure out whether to go with the Yoshi pipe you have or the Akrapovic slip on that just came out. I know the pipe doesn't add power, but as to sound improvement specifically in person (videos don't always do it justice), in the low to mid RPMs, is the sound improvement very noticeable? Does the new tone cover up some of the sewing machine-esque valve noise? Lastly, with the db killer removed, is the slip on noticeably louder or just a little bit? Thanks!

[@gren1977]

Dear Lord, that sound! Glad to have found this video :D

[@RobertSmith-bh5cv]

I was thinking the same thing just before I read Kyle's very accurate comment. No music, no commentary... no watching you put your gloves on for 2 minutes. Just a great sounding bike. Good job and thanks.

[@VictorEkroth]

Thank you for the kind words! I will try to do some videos next year with a new setup to improve quality further and hopefully reccord several new bikes then :)

[@herooi7]

Wow, this is awesome!!! I'm riding suzuki sv 650n '01 and your tracki is my soon holiday roads!

[@tacline2]

This really makes me want a new SV650, and it was already in my top 5 for my next bike.

[@sv7017]

Damn, whata nice sound! Cant get enough. Hope this sound could be possible on the new Vstrom 650. Same engine!

[@Lukeamyster]

When the bike is under load in the low rpms that exhaust sounds sick

[@manishrohan8041]

Man those roads are beautiful

[@johnwright6995]

had an original 1999 sv great bike loads of character sounded like a little Ducati I miss it a lot after seeing your video i am thinking of getting the new sv650a

[@VStrom2019]

I know someone else with the same exhaust, same bike, same sound. Awesome.

[@mmdirtyworkz]

Awesome road, bike and sound!

[@jmnstr]

I think it sounds awesome! No wind noise is a big plus! The only mechanical noises I hear is the chain. That is to be expected!

[@VictorEkroth]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@mindspinn311]

Can’t wait to get mine. I’ve had my SV650 since June 2020 and still stock exhaust because Yoshimura was out of stock. Soon!

[@darthvisor9289]

Sounds awesome, love the sound of V twins!

[@AlaskanFalcon]

Play this video and Granger Smith - backroad song at the same time. Great combo!

[@mcnallyprendergast6382]

Perfect scenery for riding!! And a wonderful sound!!! I gonna suscribe right now!!

[@turbo311]

A riders dream! Gorgeous.

[@ewooll]

I got a Yoshimura titanium for my SV650a in Thailand. I think it might be louder than the Euro version, it is 93db. Anyway, it has really transformed my SV into a great bike, because it cured the snatchy throttle response maybe because it seems to have a good deal less engine braking now. Sounds better too, with the stock all you could really hear was the induction noise of the airbox.

[@gentleridereric1556]

Awesome sound and beautiful place :)

[@Bobab13]

Your video is as much awesome as the bike ! What a sound ! Great video ! Thanks for sharing !

[@stevebrown2646]

[@Petrolheadish]

Which Yoshi exhaust did you fit?:) Baffle removed I suppose? Thanks in advance!

[@paulmarzec7577]

Hi Victor, sweet video. I have a question for you. I know the slip on isn't going to give much power if any but people notice better throttle response and smoother power. Have you noticed anything like that with your pipe? thank you!!

[@TheEZGZ]

Thank You Sir!

[@richardsadventures4958]

Does it sound as good with the dB killer in? Just quieter? Which yoshi model? Sounds awesome!

Hi, did you have a DB killer/silencer in your exhaust? my Yoshimura sounds different to this, more like an inline 4 once it gets really going

[@dofty]

Awesome video!

[@maxtube3003]

Nice sounds!

[@efratoy]

Thank you for sharing great video

[@TheGeekazoid]

is this a full exhaust setup or the slip on??? please reply thanks

[@VictorEkroth]

No, this is just the slip-on, I later installed an arrow mid pipe. I don’t recommend removing the catalytic converter. It makes it way to loud.

[@raysup]

Which specific slip on is this? Street Alpha?

[@EBthere]

Excellent riding and you seem very comfortable on the SV , so I have to ask ---- have you changed the factory seat?

[@VictorEkroth]

EBthere Thank you! Yeah I’ve got the Tuck n roll seat.

[@Jinxid77]

Have the same bike (x variant), its lovely :D the mic is a bit "Generous" but the sensation sounds much the same, I have to say its a lovely stretch of road, I see it's in sweden, and being in Denmark I have to wonder how far it is :) - I've been lurking this vid many many times, and I just have to chime in and say its a great one, no bs babble, just pure road and sound. Fan-fucking-tastic. :D

[@VictorEkroth]

Oh, thank you for the kind words. If you live in Denmark, then you can take this road as a detour if you’re going to Bornholm. Just go off the E65 at Svaneholm castle and put in Häckeberga castle as a destination and you get quite a bit of this road. :)

[@Jinxid77]

@@VictorEkroth excellent! Thank you, my family is from Bornholm, and I have been thinking of taking a trip there, so maybe I should! 😊 Happy rides, and stay safe

[@thebunnykeepers5844]

Love the sound this exhaust makes. Is it a slip-on or a full exhaust system?

[@VictorEkroth]

It´s a slip-on

[@TheGubbist]

Very nice video, thanks! Where is this road?

[@VictorEkroth]

Thank you! It´s part of a great road north of Skurup in Sweden. Let me know if you need better directions :)

[@DJandSIG]

Sounds great! Did you have to modify fuel/air mapping after installing the Yoshimura?

[@ridingweeb4801]

It's a slip on so u guess you don't

[@VictorEkroth]

Indeed not, no need to change the mapping!

[@turbo311]

You don't have to. I didn't with my full Yoshimura on my FZ and it was fine. But even with stock exhaust the bike will run better after a reflash/tune. So with the exhaust it's worth doing.

[@eurynomos2763]

where did you have the camera mounted?

[@TheAutoRanch]

Great video and great sounding exhaust. Was the dB killer hard to remove? Thanks!

[@VictorEkroth]

Jason H Thank you! No, the db-killer is not installed on delivery. You get it in the bag with the mounting hardware.

[@TheAutoRanch]

Victor Ekroth Thank you

[@geoffnicol4481]

Hi Victor, great video. Was this with or without the db killer?

Thank you Geoff! It was without the DB killer.

Hi, Can you tell me the average fuel consumption of this bike when you drive your SV650 like this (3~4000 rpm with relatively high gear maybe?)? Thanks.

[@noobasdfjkl]

How tall are you, and do you love your bike?

[@toth1981]

Hi Victor? Do you have also the popping sound when releasing the throtle.I kinda hear somthing but not sure.

[@VictorEkroth]

Hi! It does not really pop on the overrun, just a slight "gurgle" you bearly hear it.

[@toth1981]

Victor Ekroth Because I just installed LeoVince slipon and when I let the throttle in the 2 nd gear and engine breaking occur I got the popping in the exhaust...maybe need to do a remap?!

[@VictorEkroth]

If you get loud popping, then it might be a good idea, I just think it sounds odd. I´ve removed the catalytic converter on mine with a arrow mid-pipe for this season and i still don´t get popping. If it sounds like mine on the overrun I would not worry about it unless you don´t like the way the throttle response is.

[@toth1981]

Victor Ekroth Thank you for the reply.

[@toth1981]

Victor Ekroth Another thing,the exhaust header pipe is getting blue colour, since I changed the muffler...how is the header pipe on your bike?
