I have been lucky enough to own 3 sv650's so I thought I would share what I have learned here.My first Sv was bought accidently I called into my local breakers looking for parts for a Honda Hornet 250 (Jap import) and out of curiosity asked if it was for sale?Twenty minutes later I had traded in my Honda and was riding my first ever Vtwin.She was a black fully faired 2001 curvey model with some small cosmetic damage.I kept hitting the limiter on the sv for a few days as she reved so quickly to the redline compared to baby Hornet. After getting used to riding the Vtwin I mastered the short shifting and stayed in the grunty midrange, wow what a great engine!The 650 vtwin is a wave of tourque that is predictable and gives you miles of smiles!It will max out at an indicated 135mph with an exhaust and K&N filter.Overtaking was effortless, motorways get eaten up and long spins through the twisties are a breeze.So impressed with my first SV650 I decided to buy a second one and race minitwins!yet another Curvey version this was well kitted when I got it!Full akropovic system, dynojet stage 2 (which works better with a BMC airfilter), Elka rear shock, uprated maxton fork internals and gold valve emulaters (best money ever spent! 2secs a lap faster!) Brembo master cylinder, galfer discs (the only real bad point of racing the sv was the standard brakes were not up to it!)and the rest.I would hazard a guess that the most fun times in my life have been barreling into turn one of a race with the soundtrack of SV thunder as 30 plus SV's drop gears and hope that the engine braking will slow me enough to turn her in just to accelerate out like a bat out of hell again!My third Sv came after I sold the other two and was bikeless, a pointy sv was the cards this time.I bought a 2003 pointy in black again and It was an excelent update in style and functionality but the carbed model seemed to have better low down power and grunt as the sv suffered the dreaded tightening C02 emmisions.All in all it was a miniscuel difference and the pointy served me well.Ride and Handling, All sv650s are budget in the suspension department and will never handle like a Cbr600rr.Cheap upgrades like Gsxr600 or zx10 2004 shocks can help or splash out on a named brand shock.Fork internals like progresive or weighted springs will not break the bank and are a masive improvement.EBC HH pads are a must over the stock supplied set.Qulity and reliability,On a whole the Sv650 is reliable when looked after and has a few choice mods.Being a vtwin starting takes a good condition battery so a trickle charger is a must.The curvey used to run on one cylinder in the rain(a known fault)so a fender extender is a good idea to stop the front cylinder getting drowned.Mismatched spark plugs were the cause of a starting issue with my pointy, as there is only two you may as well change them.Some Sv engines burnt off oil causing them to seize, a mate went through 3 engines as he never checked the levels.Its a 5 minute job to top up your oil so what are you waiting check it now.Corrosion is a common complaint with SV owners and admitidley Suzuki have never had a great finish on any bike but common sense should prevail by you taking preventative measures.Buy some ACF50 and use as directed, wash your bike once a week (always a good time to chcke the oil too)dry it and polish it.Use grease on all moving parts and metal polish on shiney bits.Your Sv will look new again!overall,The Sv 650 is cheap to buy and run while being powerfull and fun!My first curvey had 60,000miles on it when I sold it and was ready for more.People say its a midrange budget bike, which it is but with the right hands with the right mods you can have just as much fun as the big boys.Its a very capable stepping stone before a sports 600.Wishing you all dry roads, Skapegoat.

i really rate my 06 sv650s. passed in march and got it soon after. went from being nervous about leaning etc to keeping up with experienced riders on rideouts within 3 months (about 15 rides). it gives so much confidence with its low weight flickability and its low and mid v-twin grunt. was wondering if 70bhp would be enough, but below 3 figures it sure is. does 0-100 in a shade under 10 secs apparently. r6 owners etc tell me they have little grunt till 8-10k revs but this pulls nicely at 4-5 and is fully on song at 6-7k where it starts to sound less basey and more racy upto its 11k red. a beautifully linear power delivery makes it easy to keep up with the peaky 4cyls on all but the longest and straightest and it uses less fuel too! worst ive done is 48mpg. best 58! cheap insurance at under £220 with zero no claims. ultra reliable so far and with a scorpion can sounds like some sort of 5mpg v8/v12 with attitude! clueless about what to get next without lots of extra outlay and running costs. maybe a gsxr750 if i can justify, but if not i'll keep.dislike the ride on some poorer roads and lack of storage. its ok rather than great on m-ways with its smallish screen and you get loadsa flys on yer helmet, but id forgive it alot more. its best on the twisties but with great filtering ability due to its grunt and narrowness, its actually a strong all rounder.summer weekends = very happy days!

I bought a new 2006 Sv650s sports, meaning it's got full fairing and a rear seat cover. I use it for for commuting to college and back every day in all weather, then used at weekends for fun. Although the bike is standard(apart from a Meta alarm, R&G crash bungs and bar ends), restricted to 33bhp and I have only 4 months experience on a big bike, when I took it to a track day it was very good and easy to ride. The suspension set up was perfect at standard (I weigh 9 stone)and it was easy to take into the corners. However, the restrictor meant I was being overtaken on every straight going flat out, and the standard tires failed to impress me, especially in the wet and under heavy braking. That said, the Sv is perfect for commuting, and in the 4800 miles I've done on it in 5 months, nothing has gone wrong. That is apart from soon after I had a Meta alarm fitted, the bike had starting difficulties to do with the elecrtronics and re-wiring which were soon fixed. Ride and handling: perfectly set up for my weight and riding style and versatile enough to accomodate my larger dad comfortably. Equipment: I agree with the MCN verdict; everything's there, and works fine, but suzuki haven't gone over the top where equipment is concerned. Quality and reliability: nothing has gone wrong with the standard bike, just the Meta alarm difficulties. Value: great value for money so far. Engine: restricted but enough for commuting and weekend riding. Strengths: Fun, good all round bike, comfy commuter, lots of good aftermarket parts, easy to ride even for a big bike noob like me. Weaknesses: standard tires aren't amazing, restrictor kills the top end power, standard brakes are good but not great, no off road capabilities ;) If you're thinking of buying an Sv, I hope this review was helpful, and I would definitely recommend it!

I've recently come back to biking after a break of 6 years. I previously owned a cbr600. I was drawn to the sv650s due to low insurance and all the good reviews. I haven't been let down. It's a really good fun bike - very flickable and looks cool. It's much more fun to ride than the cbr6 - I love the engine braking on a twin. Not that comfortable for long periods on either wrist or bum (anything over an hour)so can't imagine it would be a great tourer. It's also pretty hard work at anything over 90 miles an hour - but if you are new to biking or have come back to it that's plenty to be going on with. Great bike - highly recommended. Strengths: Easy to ride, cheap insurance group, looks good, the feel of a twin. Weaknesses: No wind protection at speed, front fork corrosion and general lack of build quality, standard brakes are not great.

Due to 2 insurances claims , I needed a lower group bike, have owned lots of previous bikes my last being a kwak 750. The sv650s came with free servicing for 2 years ( actually 3 free services up to 8000 miles) this I would guess would be worth 400 quid so bike was a bargin. Straight line speed is obviously down on a like for like sports 4, however there is enough go for UK's roads . The bike is an ideal commuter & is still great fun on the weekend, it is cheap to buy & run & insure eg returns 50 + mpg Front suspension needs upgrade is you are over 11 stones & oe tyres are not great. Front plug is exposed & you need to fit a fender extender , or water proof grease the front plug to stop problems in the wet, front fender keeps a lot of dirt off front of engine etc. Bike is really best for solo use, as struggles 2 up but I am a big bloke. Strengths: Price , fun , cost of ownership. Weaknesses: Front suspension, build quality is not great as dunlop d220's are not great esp in the wet. 781b155fdc
