killer bikes. sv's are for riders, not wanna-be's. only ridden one once ( the 650 anyways ), but it was one of the best trach rides i've ever been on. nothing fancy, just proper set up, pipe, the usual. but man, it egged me on. killer ride, awesome sound. i have an sd990. i love it. sv's are too cool though.
i'm debating between the ninja 650r and the sv650, i like the leaning forward of the sv cause i sat on one... i never sat on the ninja 650r. BUT which bike is more user-friendly considering it will be my first bike? In terms of looks i love the sv look but the ninja is also good looking as well so it's kinda hard to decide. Performance is not an issue both are the same cc's and i probably wont have the skills or talent to bring these bikes to their maximum potential anyways!! Thanks in advance
@plehdehgame Hey, I own a SV and my opinion might be a bit biased. Believe it or not, with the 2 bikes performance does differ quite a bit, with the 650r lagging behind. overal i'd say 650r is easier to start on, with lwoer seat height, less power...etc but , if you are willing to take your time and take a chance, go with the sv650. Im 5'6 138lbs male, athletic build and it was my first bike; i love it to death! also, 650r sounds like a cat breathing in and out while sv sounds has a deep grumble
@plehdehgame You can always change the handlebars, To the type that suite your needs on the Ninja 650r..Hope that help's make your choice. Take care, yl
is this a good bike to start on? regardless of size? I heard any bike is good ranging from 250-650cc and i was also advised to stay away from inline-4 bikes and stick to v-twins. meaning this would be a good choice. But i just got into the motorcycle world i was wondering if anyone can tell me the bikes that are good for starters...I'm into sportbikes with fairings and must be able to take highway speeds without struggle. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Only time the oil starvation thing is an issue is if someone is a tool and constantly does long wheelies.... run some synth and keep wheelies for no more than a second or two and you're fine
Keep wheelies to a few seconds at most and you wont have to worry
really if you want wheelies get a penis bike like a kawasaki ninja or something.
The SV also sound waay better with a decent exhaust system like the M4 the stocker ones suck anus!
All in all the SV is one of the best all around bikes... it does everything OK... sure other bikes are better at some things. but the SV is good and also cheap on insurance and I can still do over 200kph on it. There is nothing like the v-twin sound
@drummerkid69 Yeah. I've just got a Ninja 250 for now. The SV650 has really been intriguing lately though. I found one at a dealership, but it got scooped up quickly.
@MotorcycleSportBikes me too ! yellow, 65K miles(all mine). upgrades, Bridgestone battleaxe(were on sale), organic brakes, Microlon, frame sliders, auto chain oiler, bike alarm, and a biker bell attatched to the throttle body so it jingles when I turn on the kill switch. still runs sexy.
The quality of the video is very nice, but the bike you selected for your video is very girlie-feminine. A man would never ride such a whimpy bike, unless of course he is a homosexual.
I miss my little SV, i had a 2006 one in red with no lower fairing, it was the perfect road bike, you could drag your knee when you wanted or you could casually tour, it just did everything. I have a 09 GSXR600 now but i regret ever selling the SV .. great bike.
I just picked up an 2006 sv650n without knowing that wheelying the thing could create serious malfunctions. Is there a way to make sure the canals wont dry?
i've not seen a mod such as that for sale, but from what I know, all pre 2003 (including '03) SV suffer from oil starvation in front cylinder when wheeling. I had my first SV break because of that. All official '04 SV have been fitted with an internal engine plate to keep oil in the from cylinder for this reason. I would still be careful about doing wheelies, and check oil all the time! SV are notorious for eating oil!
@photokid69 I'm considering a SV650, so I was wondering if I should be really worried about this issue as long as it wasn't used as a stunt bike at all? I mean will a few wheelies by the previous owner here and there be okay to still purchase one?
@mr94silverado Wouldn`t worry about it too much.This only affected early bikes because tjhe oil pickup was at the front of the engine.The later bikes had the oil pickup moved to the back.
I`ve owned an sv650 for 11 years and it`s a great bike.I love it and it`s running as well as the day i bought it.Go buy one!
@zelatur yeah, what about it? an oil cooler has nothing to do with the oil pump and the lubrication. If the oil pump channels run dry, the pumping stops and so does the lubrication.
Other bikes have different located oil pumps so there's always lubrication.
Nice! Super quality, beautiful weather, nice scenery and some nice ideas. I like more videos where there's more riding a going through corners, than just playing around on a one mile straight, but good work!
@Nonicknameleftforme thanx man. I woulda loved to had some corners in there, but we got nooo twisties in our area (exept for all the 90 degree turns on every street corner in town lol.. but no sweet twisties)
im all about the turns man. im workin on a new vid right now on my R6. might have some track riding in it =D
Nice! A fellow sv rider AND pentax user- hell ya! I shoot w/ a k10- i didnt know the k7 shoots vid. My mentor sold me the k10 and shoots with a k7 now. nice!
Yah I made it out a couple days, I would have rode every day during that chinook, but I had to do a carb clean before I could fire up the old steed. I also got out for a short rip a couple days ago.
ha i dont see u having a video of ANY bike on youtube, or even havin a bike period. so shut the hell up, buy a bike, then come back and comment, u waste of skin.
Hey guys, the video looks nice. I want to buy a new official SV from the Suzuki dealer, but i heard they dont make them anymore....such a damn shame..!
I wanted a SV650N black, i dont want that ugly Gladius...come on, it looks like a pussy bike. No offense.
my other bro's got the gsx650F.. its an allright bike but i would still pick mine over his.
my dads got the concours 14 and i take that on for a rip ever now n then... and my mom has a 250 ninja.. so theres enough bikes to "switch every once in a while"
I adore my bike (smirk), my Suzie
