Positioned in Suzuki's sport touring motorcycle lineup, the 2015 Suzuki SV650S ABS relies on a 645 cc (39.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 71.1 HP (51.9 kW) at 8,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 64 Nm (47.2 lb-ft) at 6,400 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 110.2 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,400 rpm) and peak power (8,400 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the SV650S ABS measures 204 kg (450 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.35 HP/kg (2.87 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,425 mm (56.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
