Positioned in Suzuki's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2015 Suzuki SV650S features a 645 cc (39.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 81.0 x 62.6 mm (3.2 x 2.5 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the SV650S measures 202 kg (445 lbs) wet (curb). 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.
