Got myself an SV650.

This one's a race bike (we have a class for hardly modified 650cc and under twins in the UK), but hopefully I'll be swapping my TRX850 for a road SV650, so that I've got some spares.

Anyway, anyone know what can be done to prevent the SV blowing up after wheely abuse?

Now, I suspect I'm not good enough to go enough distance to kill it, but don't want to find out the hardway.

I have heard you can get some baffle foam for the oil pickup.
Was also wondering if you can also get something to modify the oil pickup point to the rear of the engine?

Anyone know about either?

ummm, you cant up a oil pick up in it, its a v-twin. the difference is in 4clyders your puttin in an extended pick up, twins dont have one to begin with. good get around bike but the engine will definitally blow way before any 4cylder would

Cheers.

Oh well, never had a twin apart.
Anyone had any experience with baffle foam? I've definitely heard of this being used before and know that some people do pretty serious stuff on the SV.

Of course I could just sort out road legal stuff for the ZX9 I got lying around that's begging to be stunted (a bit crashed etc already ).

I've been researching this subject for years and have yet to come across anything. Check out www.svrider.com and look in the forums and do a search there. Should find something.
