Out of every turn, away from every light Id rather have power down low than peaky.

do you really consider the sv650 a sport touring bike? i _guess_ it is, no room for luggage though. i totally agree with you about liter bikes being just to much for the road.

I would say that sooner or later, even on a sv650, you are going to progress to the point where to practice and improve upon your skills… you are basically wreckless driving. in other words, you can’t enjoy thier full potential on the road legally

You sir have a lot of self control and should be commended for this. i’ve never gone that fast on anything less then a 4 lane hwy and thats asshole behavior i admit.
