• The 41mm conventional style front fork has a generous 4.9 in. ( 125mm) of wheel travel to provide a sporty, but plush ride.
• New preload adjusters for 2018 on each fork leg allow the rider to quickly tune the front fork’s spring rate for riding conditions or load weight.
• Link-type rear shock unit has 2.48 in. (63mm) stroke, and is tuned for a superb progressive feel and to react efficiently to varied road conditions while still delivering an agile and stable feel.
• The rear shock’s spring pre-load is 7-way adjustable so you can easily adjust for a passenger or cargo.
• Front brakes with dual, fully floating 290mm discs are grasped by two-piston TOKIKO calipers for strong braking performance. A compact Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) ensure braking power matches available traction.
• Five-spoke cast-aluminum-alloy wheels are shod with lightweight, front and rear DUNLOP radial tires for sharp handling and good mileage.
• New Dunlop ROAD SMART III tires are fitted for 2018 to help with handling and all-around tire performance.
• The instrument panel has several features, including a tachometer, speedometer, odometer, dual trip meter, reserve trip meter, clock, coolant temperature/oil pressure indicator, gear position, plus fuel consumption and driving range data.
• Well proportioned, tubular handlebars and mid-set foot controls create a sporting, yet ergonomically relaxed riding position.
• Tastefully designed, round shaped headlight is multi-reflector type with 12V60/55W halogen bulb.
• Bright, durable LED combination tail and brake light, plus front and rear, amber tinted turn signals.

• The slim fuel tank and seat joint aids the rider touch the ground better at stops.

Engine Features

• Class exclusive*, 645cc DOHC 90°V-twin engine has been refined with more than 60 new parts to produce increased horsepower while conforming the latest emission requirements.
• The energy efficient engine has new pistons that were engineered with use of FEM (Finite Element Method) analysis to achieve optimal rigidity and weight.
• Each piston skirt has a special resin coating, and the other sliding part are tinned for less friction and greater durability – a first for a Suzuki motorcycle.
• Suzuki’s innovative L-shaped piston rings contribute to reduce blow-by gas, resulting in less emissions and greater combustion efficiency.
• SCEM (Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material)-plated cylinders reduce friction and improve heat transfer and durability.
• Both cylinder heads feature Suzuki’s original Dual Spark Technology for greater combustion efficiency, better fuel economy and cleaner emission.
• The fuel injection system employs Suzuki’s innovative, SDTV (Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve) with 39mm throttle bodies. The secondary throttle valves are controlled by servo motor for smooth power delivery and optimum combustion efficiency.
• Ten-hole; long-nosed type fuel injectors on each throttle body improves fuel atomization for better combustion efficiency and while reducing fuel consumption.
• The EFI system employs O2 feedback and a precise intake pressure sensor for optimum combustion efficiency in various conditions, and reduces emissions to an incredibly low level.
• Suzuki’s patented, Throttle-body Integrated Idle Speed Control (TI-ISC) eases starting, stabilizes the engine idle speed and helps lower emissions. The system is compact and lightweight.
• The TI-ISC on the SV650 has a new Low RPM Assist feature that seamlessly adjusts engine speed during take-off and low-speed running to smooth the power delivery and to help eliminate the possibility of the rider stalling the motorcycle.
• The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides state-of-the-art engine management and has enhanced settings to suit the intake and exhaust systems, resulting in better fuel economy and linear throttle response.
• Advanced, transistorized ignition control programming helps maintain more precise spark timing to the four iridium, long-life spark plugs.
• The SV650 features a new Suzuki Easy Start system (which was first featured on the GSX-S1000) lets the rider start the motorcycle with a momentary press of the start switch without pulling in the clutch lever when the transmission is in neutral.
• The air cleaner case is all new to accommodate crankcase breather relocation from the engine cover and the capacity changes required for the increased engine power. The air intake funnels have staggered lengths to heighten mid-range torque.
• The new exhaust system has a clean, functional appearance and lower weight. The 2-into-1 system has a catalyzer to further reduce emissions.
• The high-efficiency radiator has an enlarged cooling fan for exceptional cooling capacity. To further control temperature, the engine is also fitted with a coolant-cooled, oil cooler that is compact and lightweight.
• The close-ratio, six-speed transmission features carefully selected ratios that are equally well suited for commuting or spirited riding.
• The multiplate clutch has precise worm-gear actuation for a light pull and consistent release point.
