Concept
What started in 1999 as a motorcycle built to deliver “V-Twin fun”, the Suzuki SV650 quickly became a rider’s phenomenon around the world. Not only was this universal motorcycle well-suited for urban roads but it was right at home on the racetrack too.
Raising the “V-Twin fun machine” performance even higher with latest Suzuki innovations, the SV650 now sets a higher standard. The SV650 is a rider’s go-anywhere dream machine.
More Than Just An Easy Ride
The “SV” designation in the SV650 stands for many things: Sporty V-Twin, Superior Value, Simple and Versatile. Yet, it quite simply is a concept that you actually experience rather than try to define. Loaded with capabilities and exuding personality, your daily commutes or weekend excursions on winding roads are an unforgettable ride. The SV650’s lightweight and ultra-slim profile give you the confidence to take to the road.
Dual Spark Technology
Suzuki’s Dual Spark Technology utilises two spark plugs per cylinder for precision ignition. The result is high combustion efficiency, smooth power delivery, low fuel consumption and low emissions.
Dual Spark 90° V-Twin
The Suzuki V-Twin engine is a marvel of engineering and superb versatility. While at lower RPMs, this engine delivers powerful torque that’s easy to handle and a deep robust sound. Open the throttle to mid-range, and the power of the engine responds linearly and smoothly, yet always under your control. Finally at higher RPMs, the V-Twin cruises with performance ready to go, even at higher gears. The V-Twin meets the latest EURO4 emissions regulations while achieving class-leading fuel economy (3.9L / 100km [26km / L] * ) and high maximum output.

Pistons & Rings
In order to support overall fuel efficiency and emissions control, the V-Twin engine adopts two innovations: resin coating on the piston skirt for minimised friction between the cylinder and piston, and a special L-shaped piston ring for enhanced seal performance and blow-by gas reduction.
SDTV Fuel injection
The SV650 features Suzuki’s performance-proven Dual Throttle Valve fuel-injection system, which includes dual butterfly valves per cylinder for enhanced power output efficiency. Combined with the ten-hole fuel injectors, fuel-combustion efficiency is further optimised as well as smooth power delivery and fuel economy. Furthermore, the system includes a thin and light 39mm throttle body with a built-in ISC (Idle Speed Control), providing optimized idling stability and environmental performance.
Brakes & ABS
Large 290mm dual front disc brakes with ABS and 240mm rear brake disc provide incredible stopping performance and control. Compact and lightweight, the SV650 introduces state-of-the-art ABS technology manufactured by Nissin, thus making it possible to further reduce vehicle weight without sacrificing performance. ABS control unit monitors wheel revolutions at 50 times per revolution and uses over 100 separate sensor data criteria in order to deliver a high degree of braking and stabilisation control. Stopping distance performance is maintained relatively the same across various road conditions.
* Please note that ABS is not designed to shorten the braking distance. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please drive carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.
