Here's an old video where that I was hanging back in an attempt to film my buddy in the orange suit.......that's when I leaned that 6' from the guy in front of you looks like a mile with a go pro camera.

Wow, cool stuiff. KTM is awesome stuff, I have a dirt bike, but always loved these bikes also.

According to another post the car has a 572 with a procharger, I raced a Yamaha V-max in my 09 viper punched it about 60 and about 120 he had so many car lengths on me I could not count them. I had to re evaluate my definition of fast.

You're correct, Chris. It's been a number of years since I have had an SV so I forgot to even look for the hydraulic clutch.

Travis, the V-max is a very fast bike in a straight line. They are very unassuming since they look like cruisers but they move out as fast as inline four sport bikes. I'm not surprised you had issues against one.
