I seem to recall an issue with the '03 SV1k that was corrected in newer versions... can't seem to remember what it was, but I remember there was something engine related.

the 03 had issues with the crankshaft bearings that resulted in knocking coming from the engine.

I've heard of a few SV650s that like to flood out the front spark plug

I'd go Tuono

flood as in fuel or flood as in wet plug and no spark before they added the little flap behind the radiator?
