Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
Suzuki SV 650 2021

La Suzuki SV 650 n'a pas beaucoup évolué depuis cinq ans par rapport à son prédécesseur. Le moteur a été mis à jour selon la norme Euro5 et se présente désormais de manière encore plus adulte, ce qui lui permet de s'intégrer parfaitement au reste du package. La SV 650 ne veut effrayer personne, surtout pas les débutants. Le châssis donne une impression de solidité et de sérénité, le frein demande une bonne force manuelle pour éviter un surfreinage inattendu. L'optique est d'une part intemporelle, mais d'autre part vraiment un peu dépassée sur certains composants. En revanche, le prix est correct, comme d'habitude chez Suzuki.

L'écran négatif est très lisible et rappelle celui de la précédente ER-6n - très joli !
