No matter where you pull up to park, the retro appeal of the SV650X is unmistakable with its headlight cover that mimics a bikini fairing, corresponding clip-on handlebars, a tuck-and-roll-look seat, and blacked-out controls.

Get a grip on a whole new standard. Striking looks. Comfort. Power. Versatility. Our standards deliver easy ergonomics, modern style, and metro muscle in dynamite packages. Whatever type of riding you prefer, our standards can handle it.

• Class exclusive*, 645cc, DOHC, V-twin engine produces strong, torque-rich horsepower while conforming the latest emission requirements.

• The engine’s 90-degree L-twin configuration has perfect primary balance so a heavy, power-robbing counter balancer is not needed.

• The energy-efficient engine has unique pistons that were engineered with the use of Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis to achieve optimal rigidity and weight.

• Each piston skirt has a special resin coating, and the other sliding parts are tinned for less friction and greater durability – a first for a Suzuki motorcycle.

• Bright, durable LED combination tail and brake light, plus front and rear amber-tinted turn signals.

• Attention to rider comfort and confidence includes a carefully shaped seat with a high-grip, tuck-and-roll-looking cover in leather-texture brown vinyl. Integrated cargo retention loops pull out from under the seat.

• The café racer styling was developed to create a classic, bike-builder look that also showcases the V-twin engine.

• The compact, lightweight chassis is covered with slim bodywork to create a bike that’s agile and fun to ride on a variety of streets – such as city traffic, highway, rural roads, and winding roads.

• Stylized Suzuki “S” 3D emblems on the fuel tank and the fork upper bracket denote the quality, sophistication, and performance legacy of the brand.
