Suzuki sv650s K1

Can anybody tell me what exhaust is fitted to this bike please? Thanks

[Supermoto_Fan]

Blue flame I think, hence the blue flame

Thanks. Excuse ignorance, but does an exhaust like this increase performance?

[Jemcamb]

But the exhaust should be declared for insurance purposes as a modification? Also, the bike is a K1 model. Are the fairings, hugger, belly pan likely to be factory fitted? Thanks for any help.

no if it adds more to insurance quote and yes

I see your point about the exhaust. Thanks for your help. Will make tentative enquires about the exhaust and assume that the fairings etc were factory fitted. This is my first big bike and so I want to do things right. Can't wait to collect it. Not yet done 14000 miles so there should be some life in it.

I'm pretty sure I'm right in saying the hugger, belly pan and lowers are not factory fitted on that model.

My exhaust is blue flame also, very loud. I haven't declared the fairings or hugger as they were on the bike when I bought it and I'm fairly sure they are standard. I did declare the exhaust though as it made no difference to my policy anyhow.

Went to Cambridge yesterday to collect my first big bike. Suzuki sv650s K1. Fitted new front tyre and then rode it around the quiet country roads for a couple of hours to get used to it. Eventually felt confident enough to tackle the A1M south. Great fun but cold so had to stop at South Mimms to warm up. Eventually arrived safely in west London. Love my first ever big bike. Why did I wait until I reached 55 years of age before getting my full licence?!

At least you got the nice version of this bike

Is there a not nice version?

Phoned my insurance company today to inform them of the exhaust modification and it makes no difference to the policy price as the exhaust doesn't increase the bhp. You live and learn.
