But alls good, I wouldn't mind riding your blade but you gotta sort those brakes out first LOL.
i used to think that when i had an SV but believe me the mighty inline 4 has enough engine braking if you are in the right gear!

twins beat IL4's for engine braking hands down im afraid and lets be honest....an SV isn't a bike tbh
and clunk,yes but your engine is de-tuned for less top end and more torque like a harley
and Andrew,the women in Taunton are pretty sweet compared to the down syndrome munters from plymouth (harsh but fair comment)

The SV has a 60 deg. engine layout I could have sworn it was a 90degree "V", THE SAME AS THE TL
What probably gives the SV a greater sense of engine braking is its lighter weight, rather than the engine - the TL still has two 500cc slugs hitting around 12:1 compression........
(the Rotax/Aprilia engine is the 60 degree one )
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....
Handle stressful situations like a dog - If you can't eat it or play with it, pee on it and walk away

Yeah the 60 degree was in reference to the TL but I think I might be wrong? Cant remember off the top of my head.
