06 SV 650S - Advice on what bike to buy next?

[silentcropduster]

Thats why i didnt do it, max is 44 PSI. I found the manufacturer specs on the chain guard, 34 front & 36 rear. That piece of shit @ Iron Pony was WAY off, wth....i cant believe he was that far off - that really makes me loose faith in them. I told him the make/model/year & the brand name tire & he spouted off the mouth real quick like he was certain.

[mello dude]

What does your owners manual say? Stock spec on a VFR is 36 front, 42 rear.

Stock specs on my 14 say 40 for both tires. I run 38. Every bike will have different psi specs on the chain guard. Use what yours says and you can't go wrong unless you are at the track. Street, just listen to your chain guard and manual homie.

Lol calm down. Plenty of people run the pressures he stated, especially if you're just cruising around. Until I learned how to ride hard I ran 38/42

Does anybody in cbus area have a dremel? Idk how but I stripped one of my hexigonal screws on my bike.

I can come to you if need be or we can meet up, it would take all of about 2 mins to drill a slit in the screw so i can use a flat head to get it out.

Also, I'm am idiot and broke the "frame cover" this: http://www.suzukipartshouse.com/oemparts/a/suz/508b297ff87002353072458a/frame-cover

It was already cracked by the bolt anyways, but are there any other ones i could get? it's $44 for a $2.00 piece of freggin plastic!

Got one, but I'm in Newark.

There's lots of "How to fix broken plastic" on YouTube.

maybe I'm just a whimp bec 1-2

hours on my bike without taking a break kills my back lol

That's why I like a bike that sits more upright.

The Yamaha FZ8's look awesome on paper.

Reviews are that they are pricey for what you get, and they're not easy

on gas, nor do they have a large gas tank. YouTube has comparisons.

I think the GSX 750 (not sold in this country) get's a better rating.

The SV's share very few parts, and have

much different personalities. The 1000 seems to be the 650's younger,

hotter, crazier sister. Lots of fun, until she isn't... Then you remember

the 650 cooked dinner, rubbed your back, and had better credit. The

1000 may have been better in the sack, but you're only banging 2%

of your relationship (if youre lucky)

Sounds like a good argument for having more than one girlfriend.....er......a......I mean,

motorcycle. Yeah, that's it. That's what I meant.
