Suzuki SV 650S

This is a perfectly packaged and exciting sportsbike, designed for maximum fun on road and track...

Welcome to a bike that combines middleweight agility with V-twin power - and tops it all off with aggressive and sporty styling. The 2015 Suzuki SV650SA comes with ABS* as standard equipment.

Middleweight sport bikes are known for their responsive handling, and the SV650SA is engineered to set the standard for its class. With its light and rigid aluminum-alloy truss frame and technically advanced suspension front and rear, it invites you to carve up the canyon roads with complete confidence.

The SV650SA offers an equal measure of V-twin excitement. It's loaded with advanced designs, starting with a liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine that boasts a wide powerband with crisp throttle response and strong acceleration in every gear. What's more, its 90-degree V-twin design offers perfect primary balance, which results in smooth performance and comfortable open-road riding.

*The ABS is a supplemental device for brake operation, not a device for shortening stopping distance. Always remember to reduce speed sufficiently before approaching curves.

The SV650S is a true sportsbike that not only has fantastic performance on the road; it has also proved itself a winner on the race track in small capacity racing. The sheer rideability of the machine gives positive proof that it has what it takes in all areas! With a smooth and broad power delivery, sporty handling and an ultra-reliable engine, the SV650S is certainly the bike to beat in its class. The sports seat height is relatively low to suit the majority of riders and aerodynamic and aggressive styling certainly makes the SV650S stamp its intent when it comes into view.

Punchy V-twin Power:
Suzuki’s Dual Throttle Valve fuel injection system optimises intake airflow for instant throttle response at any engine speed and provides a smooth, broad spread of power whilst maintaining the exciting character of the V-Twin.

V-Twin Leader:
Ultra reliable and torquey 645cc V-Twin is held in high regard in the motorcycling world and the sporty handling makes the SV650S the bike to beat in its classes on the club racing scene.

Sporty Handling:
Innovative aluminium-truss frame, formed with high vacuum casting technology, and pre-load adjustable suspension combine with the carefully selected riding position for excellent agility.

Aggressive Styling:
Announcing its intent, the aggressive lines of the SV make for a distinctive and unique look, which is heightened further with a blue stripe down the centreline of the white colour scheme.

Antilock Brake System (ABS) monitors brake level input and wheel speed and matches stopping power to available traction.
