    If it's the same as the TL's "tre" mod it'll be an easy and cheap (.20c) fix

    As long as you don't pull a sicky again you'll certainly hear the thing...Yoshi pipes must have one of the best exhaust notes ever IMO

    looks stunning and sounds better... just don't let that dodgy TL fella get his grubby mits on it....

    Good bike and from what you said yesterday you're really gonna enjoy it.

    Its too late, he's halfway to the Hokianga on it as we speak, something to do with his bike on service Ks now and another rear tyre pratically toast.
    I did go for a ride out to Tutukaka this afternoon before he took off though. The seat is a little harder than the TL, but then the TLs had someones butt sitting on it for the past 7 years so it should be softer. Its wasnt too bad yesterday though. The spade on the back is definately going and I would like one of those indicator intergrated tale lights which will clean up the look of the rear completely. Its on 500ks now and after the Hokianga trip should be closer to 800ks. It is pretty smart in Black but the new Oroc Gray Suzuki have brought out is pretty sharp too.

    And definitely get some of the plastic sticky protection stuff for the bottom fairing thing. Stick it on as soon as you can. A single ride over new seal will make it look like crap.

    Mine was already chipped wihen I got it (copper) so the black plastic would be much more visible that yours.

    Oh and check out Spankme's SV site - there is a whole bunch of good stuff on there.

    Thumbs up beautiful bike!!!!

    Yep we had a blue SV 1000S. Took off the dorky back guard and put on a blue hugger. Scorpion pipes are REALLY good in the carparks. Before I got my bike, I went pillion for some long trips and it wasnt that bad. The position you are sitting at, is good for the back. With the Scorpions, you do need earplugs on a long trip.

    Sniff...hubby sold it and bought a Z1000.....

    Well the Z1 is now gone and an SV is back on the cards.

    He just needs to stop falling off the pitbike (we minimotard it) and we
    can put the money towards the SV.

    The SV really is a top bike.

    You're gonna love the SV. Much lighter and more nimble than the TL. I prefered the rounded look of the TL and pre '03 SV650, but the new look SV grows on you and I now think it looks better than my new Gixxer.

    Another good SV info site is http://www.suzukisv1000.com/

    Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

    they are really nice in the black with the black frame. (its like Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy... if only it had black instruments with black lettering and black indicator lights that lit up black when you did something... I digress)

    a friend of mine did 5000k's touring on his at Crimble and he didnt complain about the seat at all.
