I personally think its stupid, these motors make more than adequate power in all ranges that this is completely unnecessary and will just increase the price tag some more. So they basically are de-tuning a bike just so it can be turbocharged. Pointless. ---

its not about power like i stated before they are doing it more for fuel economy the turbo is basically giving them 50% more mpg ---

Was sorta hoping they’d have boosted a smaller engine to make similar power as a 600. Still pretty cool though, and should have decent midrange power. Then again, I’ve never ridden a current SV, so I haven’t the slightest idea what sort of midrange those have already. ---

Low end and mid range is faster then a 600 off the line in the current sv650 ---
