Lightweight Chassis

With a remarkable ready to ride weight of only 197kg, the SV650 makes manoeuvring and handling easy and pleasurable. The SV650 makes good use of its light weight with; responsive acceleration, nimble handling and absolute cornering confidence. Riders of all levels can take to the city or winding roads and experience unrestricted fun.

Slim Body

The SV650’s streamlined profile is the result of ergonomically shaped side panels and optimised seat design, which let you straddle the motorcycle with your feet on the ground if stopped or for easy changes of position while flowing through corners.

The narrow, streamlined seat is 785mm in height and is designed almost flat from front to rear, this gives riders a high degree of grip in the upright position. Despite its ample 14.5 litre capacity, the fuel tank is slim and sports an ergonomic form for maximum rider comfort.

Aluminium Wheels and Radial Tyres

The five-spoke cast aluminium wheels create a sporty look. For an excellent balance of cornering performance and straight line speed stability, the SV650 uses the Dunlop radial sport 120/70ZR17M/C for the front and 160/60ZR17M/C for the rear.

Suspension

The front suspension system employs durable 41mm telescopic right way upfront forks with 125mm travel and are adjustable for pre-load. While the rear features link-type suspension with a stroke of 63mm and is pre-load adjustable to one of 7 pre-defined settings. Together, the SV650’s suspension system ensures consistent ride-ability and sporty handling performance.

Brakes and ABS

The SV650’S stopping performance comes courtesy of large 290mm dual front disc brakes and a 240mm rear brake disc provide incredible performance and control. Compact and lightweight, the SV650 has state-of-the-art ABS technology manufactured by Nissin, thus making it possible to further reduce vehicle weight without sacrificing performance. The 32-bit ECM monitors wheel revolutions at 50 times per wheel rotation in order to deliver a high degree of braking and stabilisation control. So stopping performance is maintained across various road conditions.

Advanced Technology

Low RPM Assist

The SV650 comes with Suzuki’s Low RPM Assist function that utilises the Idle Speed Control (ISC) to help boost engine rpm in launching operation or running at low speed. This new feature helps suppress engine stalls when running at slow speeds, resulting in better start control and operation especially in stop-and-go traffic.

Suzuki Easy Start System

The Suzuki Easy Start System engages the starter motor at a precisely timed pre-set interval to start the motorcycle with just a push of a button. A computerised 32-bit ECM checks the status and disengages the starter motor immediately after start.

Clean, Slim and Simple Form

New SV look

The overall shape expresses its slim, lightweight design and is intended to enhance the strength of V-Twin engine. Clean, neatly shaped body lines have been styled to appeal to a wide variety of riders. A combination of black plastics and painted parts emphasise its slim, sporty and lightweight looks. The body lines are made of flat lines on the top and angular lines from front axle running through to tail section.
