How much is your insurance?

530 pound tpft, 18 with 2 years no claim on an sv650.

Regarding your question about 33bhp restriction. I have my sv650s k2 model restricted. The restriction works by a metal plate washer going between the engine and the carb. The bike copes with it really well, and had no problems with it other than im too tall for it.

Its a really good bike, I do reccomend it for a restrictor/first bike rider like your self. Easy to maintain, average 140 miles to the tank, cheap insurance and parts are easily source-able. You dont notice the restrictor unless your on motorways/dual expressway. If your tall (Im 6ft 2), I wouldnt reccomend it as your knee caps become very sore due to the stress thats being put on them. The engine braking is also a problem for some users compared to inline 4 bikes.

Hope this helps in anyway.

£700 TPFT for me.

£400 YZF-R125, 24, 3NCB, 1 accident. Just done a quick MCE quote hypothetically for next year, came up as £366 :S will have to have a better look when I actually need to renew next year, bit of a ****take paying that much for a 125 with 4 years experience IMO.

Tpft? Or fully comp? Seems bit high to me aswell
 
£80 for my SV650 fully comp with my brother as named rider, and my RSV1000 is about £240 fully comp with brother on it as well. 2 years NCD on each I think.
