Suzuki SV 650 2016

The Suzuki SV 650 is accompanied by a long history of success that is sure to continue for a long time. Its supple V2 impresses with very smooth response and plenty of torque. Compact dimensions help to make the motorbike look very compact. This will be very convenient for beginners. The chassis also scores with playful handling. Unfortunately, the braking effect is not at the level one would expect from such a powerful vehicle.

So anyone who isn’t looking for a horsepower monster but prefers easy handling and good feedback is likely to get a lot of enjoyment out of the new R7. With its very solid build, attractive colour options, smooth-running engine and comprehensive electronics, this little supersport bike is sure to win over plenty of fans. And the very reasonable entry-level price of €11,499 will certainly help.
