    advice needed... too fast?

    Hello, I currently own a 2007 SV650 and have owned (a long time ago) a CBR600F3. The SV650 is just too slow. It has great low end torque, but just falls flat at over 60 mph... very disappointing. I have never ridden a liter bike and am kind of apprehensive of the power. I remember the...
