    yep.. SV.... if you took the VTR down you'll be kicking yourself for not bringing the SV

    Get 1/2 hour with Craig at Colemans to help you with the suspension.

    Also... if you can... get rid of those Dunlop D220 tires... they are crap. Didn't help me get confidence on the bike.

    Put on some Strata / Z6 Roadtec / M1 Sportec or even Pilot Powers...

    Yep, been reading posts in Keystone's thread about tyres, and your comments on the D220s. After my experience with the Sport Demons vs the std tyres on the VTR I'm getting Diablos on the SV, as they'll trade the new D220s. They reckoned Stradas wouldn't give me enough difference to warrant the change.

    Good choice. Still haven't decided between Diablo's and Powers yet for my next set of tyres.
