A little backstory : After my KTM died, I needed a new commuter ride, since there is the occasional time I need to drive (pick up stuff or whatever), my wife suggested that we get something we can both use so she won't be stuck without a vehicle. I suggested a scooter since that is much less...

Hey I recently discovered how to make my SV650 backfire whenever I want. When I am doing a between 20 and 40 mph, just keep off the clutch and flip the kill switch for a two-count. When I flip the kill switch back, *BANG*. It's a nice trick to wakeup in-attentive drivers without having them...
