Just found this channel, and I have ridden most my life. And, the culture, both "Biker" and "Squid". On my mother's side all "bikers", hell my Grandmother rode(Miss you grandma.), my point is Motorcycles are *AMAZING*, riding is not just fun... It's an awesomely therapeutic experience, every ride(at least for me.) the way he ends the video, and throughout(with exception of the "Sticker Problem. And, I get it, I tend to get a tad frustrated with fairings, one of the reasons I got an SV650.) shows just that. I'm working through my own things, and riding has become my escape, no negative thoughts can keep up with any motorcycle. And, outside of joining a club, the culture is very welcoming, even if you're a newb on a 300cc bike, regardless of politics, or other beliefs, you ride your one of us. This has been my experience. I am not naive enough to think there aren't jerks, or groups of them, and that some people have had a rougher welcome than some. I hope they kept riding though. If you've read this far, I apologize for the wall of poorly punctuated, and crap grammar, wall of text. Oh and my bad on the over sharing as well. I just want more people to ride.
Ok, as the Tombstone version of Doc Holiday is famous for saying, "I'll be your Huckleberry." The elephant in the room question.............no power commander? Just kidding. I know most folks say you can get away without one especially on an SV. I put a Yoshi slip on muffler on my Suzi Bandit 1250S and it rode fine without one. Bikes can start running lean when you change any part of the intake or exhaust systems but the Suzukis I have experience with seem to not need any adjustment to the fueling afterwards. Great video Coach.
@@CoachBob3 It is a Healtech. It use a crappy sensor and was giving me troubles. After a few days, I just ordered a Nextup switch and it work very good now. The setup is done with your phone via bluetooth and is very easy. I had it for a little over 2 years on my 2019 Kawasaki Z400 and just installed it on the SV. All I needed was a new wire harness and a conversion kit from pull type to push type for the Nextup switch. I got about 40,000 KM on the Z400 quick shifting the crap out of it and the Transmission is just fine :-) The SV should be OK
Do you know the weight savings? One thing I do when putting on locktight is I put a little on a Q-tip then on the bolt or nut. I waste a lot less and for me it's a cleaner way to do it.

That little beast is looking pretty good! 👍🏼
I really like the deeper tone!
Got the same pipe on my 2021 and also a quick shifter.
It's like a little Ducati now :-)
What quick shifter did you get. That is something I definitely want to do. Thanks for watching.

Sounds great. Good job
Are you going to do the same thing to your Spyder?? Cat removal too??
Do you know the weight savings? One thing I do when putting on locktight is I put a little on a Q-tip then on the bolt or nut. I waste a lot less and for me it's a cleaner way to do it.
It's just under half the weight.
The Q tip soaks up a good bit of lock tight that is thrown out with the Q tip so there's your wast!
I have a 2023 sv650. Link to the exhaust for purchase?
Do you know what size rivets i need in order to remove the db killer on this exhaust?
I don’t. Sorry.
Thanks for watching!!!👍👍👍
Best DB killer technique is to remove the exhaust and ride the top line.
