KEY FEATURES

• The stylish headlight cowling creates a café fairing look as the clip-on handlebars and trim, tuck-and-roll-look seat produce a sporty riding posture that is ideal at any speed.
• Side panels below the fuel tank mimic a half-fairing look and connect the body styling from nose to tail. The brown, leather-like finish of the seat adds a custom, bike-builder touch to the motorcycle.
• The SV650X’s two-tone, Glass Sparkle Black/Pearl Glacier White bodywork is complemented by blacked out wheels, controls, and chassis components.
• Visually stunning, the trellis-style frame is fashioned using high-strength steel tubes so it contributes to the motorcycle’s low weight and trim chassis.
• Dual four-piston Tokico brake calipers up front grasp a pair of 290mm fully floating stainless steel rotors for great stopping performance. The compact Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)** matches the braking performance to the available traction.
• Liquid-cooled, 645cc, four-stroke, DOHC, 90-degree, L-twin engine has perfect primary balance so it smoothly pulls with authority from idle up to the 10,000 rpm redline.
• Advanced EFI system includes Suzuki’s Low RPM Assist feature that seamlessly adjusts engine speed during takeoff and low-speed running to smooth the power delivery and to help eliminate the possibility of the rider stalling the motorcycle.
