Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki GSX-8S 2025

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

Suzuki SV-7GX 2026

The Suzuki SV-7GX impresses with its playful handling, high level of riding comfort and a pleasant and thoroughly versatile V2 engine. The quickshifter, brakes and Advanced Rider Assistance Systems all work reliably; it’s just the lack of cruise control that leaves you scratching your head. Anyone looking to travel in a relaxed and playful manner, whilst also tackling twisties at a brisk pace, will find this to be a highly recommended mid-range crossover.

a more docile, supple V2 that nevertheless never gets boring

truly agile

no intrusive intervention from the Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

very good value for money

pleasantly damped suspension that also offers plenty of stability

No cruise control

hardly any room for particularly tall riders
