The ignition retarding circuitry is built into the CDI unit. It's probably a
bunch of coils resistors and capacitors (LRC circuit) that increase the
amount of time that the low voltage pulse from the pulser coil takes to get
to the switching transistor that controls the ignition coil primary voltage.
The pulser coil itself is set at the full advance position of perhaps 32
degrees BTDC. The LRC circuit would retard it to about 10 degrees BTDC.
Some more powerful Suzuki motorcycles have a tendancy to wheelstand in first
gear. So a resistor is added to the ignition retard circuit to keep the front
wheel down when the transmission is in first gear.
This site talks about using a 15K resistor for a "timing retard eliminator".

The SV650 probably has a special position switch on the transmission.

If you need to advance the ignition, but don't need to change the retarding
curve just take a swiss file and make the pulser coil mounting plate holes
oval-shaped.
If you do need to modify the retarding curve, learn about LRC circuits.
