- Had my first experience at Pocono Speedway last weekend with Evolve GT, it was a fun little track and we even got to enter a race over lunch! Had to go up against the 600 as there was no class for my 650 to race in.

Pretty sick how competitive the sv was against the middle weights man. Good shit.
Eh.. not really.. Sv's give up about 30 horsepower to most 600 sportbikes. So the SV is going to get freight trained on the straights.
@@TenGreenRangers definitely!
Very interesting I've owned an 2003 sv650s for 18 years now. It's funny how people under estimate how good these little bikes are. They are more than capable of sticking it to bigger bikes and I think they make you a better rider. I'll never sale her.
I had no idea an sv could do this. I ride mine like a freakin scooter and corner at around 15kph..
That's a pretty heavily modified SV. Lol
@@cfltitan sv's are hands down some of the best handling bikes ive ever ridden. Off the line and straights it sucks. But cornering it can overcome any bike.
But they don't need to be! If you put gold emulators in the forks, spring them for your weight, and even just throw a $50 take-out rear shock, and some quality tires on them, and they are track day riders! Going fast isn't about HP.
tires dawg!
Uuh, the SV650 is a VERY popular trackbike.
Awesome video. Makes me really want to get an SV. It's great seeing you keep up with the 600s
Im about to take my sv650 to the track for the first time! Stopped by to get some tips and hints for tracking one 😊
Exceptional riding sir😎👍 and very humble with it👌
Big proud. Love it!
You have the right learning attitude to be humble is good you did great I am sure that in a short time you will best these guys.
Good racing bro! Enjoyed the vid
Love you modesty, Tyler. You'll make a lot of friends who will help you along the way given that attitude. Good luck!
Super impressed with your ride on the little bike!)
Love your videos, the narration is great. You’re damn fast.
Thanks man!
I'm so proud of having this bike.never knew my bike could be capable of doing this.much love
same, it's a great feeling to know that my bike is more capable than me, this way i can focus on improving myself and my riding without thinking about the bike itself too much :)
I think the wera has a whole race class devoted to this bike
Good stuff for everybody to see!
Nice Shooting👌
Greetz from another 75Hp Rider✌🙂
Just bought an sv and didn't know it could do this kind of cornering. Impressive
chill but informative narration and great riding! sub'd
Great video!
Thanks for the video...and the potential of the SV....i ride a yamaha morpheous scooter ....but I want to transition to a motorcycle ...what a sv650 as my first bike..😁
Great job!!!!!!!!!
good job young man.
That SV V-twin motor just sounds awesome.
You are very humble good sir...
Awesome video! On city streets I enjoy the torque of a V-twin much more than an inline. It’s 2024 and I’m riding a 2003 SV1000s. It’s a blast in the city once you get used to riding a 1000cc V-twin sport bike in those conditions. I rode a ‘99 SV650 back in the early 2000s. The “trick” on the SV1000 compared to the 650 is spending most of your time between 4K and 6K, or higher gears for lower RPMs. It pulls really hard in that range and allows you to be prepared for anything. The 650 is probably better for city riding for most people I would think.
Hell of a bike
Hell of a rider
Great action - thanks for sharing buddy!
My sisters husband has a second gen sv650 hes giving me for free, I'll be building it and starting track training this summer, maybe Ill see you and these guys around, im in Maryland, thanks for the content man
Love this, I'm considering an SV as a B bike to tighten up my braking and lines. Have you done the new EGT layout with the oval? I have a video of it on my channel.
No brakes no problem!
Just bought a brand new SV. Stoked!
cool layout, i only got to do the short version of east. this looks way more fun!
Sv time
Amazing stuff man, really maxing out the SV. really enjoyed the video. Random question , did you ever go down a tooth in the front for a particular track? either 14/44 or 14/45?
Thanks man! I do not touch my counter shaft sprocket to adjust gearing. All my changes are done through the rear sprocket. I cant say off the top of my head what my gearing is but I will have it in an upcoming video.
everybody out there is totally missing their marks.. if that's good where you are then I need to come and race there!
absolutely love my 23 sv650 xo
So…on a 650sv racing 600s ridden by some quality riders…and for half the race you don’t have brakes….
Man you what do you carry your balls around in…a dump truck lol
Love this vid…especially the breakdown on moves and explanations around gearing etc etc nice one
It's easy to pass on straightaway with lots of horsepower. Takes little to no talent! The real thrill comes from making all of your passes while barreling through the corners! I had a buddy that was riding a modified 2018 BMW S100RR. He was getting seriously frustrated not being able to hang with my carbureted 2000 Suzuki SV650! It's all about the corner speed! Cool video!
love watching your videos! Im interested in getting an sv650 cause of my love of v twins. Im curious, what made you choose the sv 650 over an inline 4 ?
It’s a class of racing that is exponentially cheaper than racing middleweight bikes. The cost to get a well set up 2nd gen isn’t bad where as a new 600 is pricy and eats more tires.
Time for a GSXR fork swap!!! I put ZX6R forks and ZX14 brakes on my Ninja 650 and the braking is amazing. Only limitations now is the meatbag in the saddle. Great riding dude!
I prefer the stock front end with aftermarket internals myself!
I tried my girl's track SV650 a while ago. Except for the low rev limiter compared to my R1 and endless shifting (luckily she had a quickshifter) it handles quite well. I never thought i would have as much fun on that back as I did!
What quickshifter does she have if you don’t mind me asking?
@@twowheelhooligan6821 a quickshifter from a company called HM
Hey man, great stuff to watch a few weeks before the season in Czechia. Can't wait... Just wanted to ask what's that red box right behind the windshield for?
Hey man, that’s my transponder for when I race
Oh, right... Thanks
Damn I really want to race in a track
Yo! Those High RPM’s Got Me Convinced!!
OEM exhaust cams in place of stock intake cams is the move
I really liked your video. Which fairing do you run?
GSXR 600 Fairings
👍👍
what suspension is on your SV? Just ordered the AR25 kit from Traxxion and a Penske 8975 rear... hoping I can ride half as nice and fast as you are once installed!
I’ve got traxxion AK-20 cartridges in my forks and a Penske double clicker shock
Seeeeewwwweeeeeet!!!! Thanks man!
Do your tyres give you any warning before you start sliding or ultimately low side/high side?
There will be warnings when a slick is at the ends of its life. Little slips here and there
If you have to choose skill beats horspower any 😊day of the week.
Tyler, why aren't the SV's able to keep with the 600's? Is the inline 4 that much better than the V twin? I mean they seems to work fine for Ducati.
It's a huge difference in horsepower. An I-4 600 puts out 110-130 HP while an SV650 puts out around 70 HP.
The design of an inline 4 makes it so that they achieve much higher rpms like 14k and there they peak much more horse power, even with less cc's. That's why in the video as soon as there is a straight line and his opponents can rev out their 600's they overcome him very easily as the peak hp difference is very big. (70~ hp vs 120~)
Hey man what fuel were you running for the 650 that day?
Just 93 pump gas, I have only used race fuel for moto America
💪💪💪🔥
I live by there
what engine mods you got? ive seen guys wring some power out of these motors, not stellar numbers but enough to be able to hang with the 600s some more which is why i am asking..
In this video, oem exhaust cam for intake cam, bored throttle bodies and pump 93.
@@tylerhumphreys5312 ok so still a bump above stock, if the budget permits and you have enough experience in tuning some 12.5:1 pistons might do you well especially if you want to get the most out of 93 octane
Hey i wonder if you have a quickshifter installed on your Sv? And if yes which one :)
I do, I have a dyno jet one
@@tylerhumphreys5312 thank you for your reply, did you have any problems since or damage gearboxwise?
:)
So what happened with the brakes? Why did they fade so much
Not sure, I suspect the fluid got too hot
SV Calipers are... SV Calipers.
Awesome video! Your speedo isn't working :)
Its intentional, on the Svs the speedo runs from a front wheel spacer stock. I run aftermarket spacers on my front wheel that eliminate the spacer with the speedo built in. You do not need a speedo on track so it is not a big deal.
@@tylerhumphreys5312 heard the same thing when you swap for GSXR forks. There are some solutions to relocate the speedo to the rear wheel, from what I've read.
@@DragosDreamer1989 I could run one if I wanted too but I have already stripped my harness down which removed the plug for it. No need one a race bike!
