* Depending on road surface conditions, such as wet, loose, or uneven roads, braking distance for an ABS-equipped vehicle may be longer than for a vehicle not equipped with ABS. ABS cannot prevent wheel skidding caused by braking while cornering. Please drive carefully and do not overly rely on ABS.

| Key Features | |
| Digital Antilock Brake System (ABS)* monitors wheel speed and matches stopping power to available traction. | |

| Engine Features | |
| Each cylinder head features a compact combustion chamber with two 31mm intake valves set at 14-degrees from the cylinder centerline and two 25.5mm exhaust valves set at 16-degrees from the cylinder centerline. | |
| Each 39mm throttle body carries a 10-hole fuel injector. The extra-fine atomization injectors produce an average spray particle diameter that is smaller for improved combustion efficiency. | |
| Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system provides better efficiency and throttle response through a butterfly valve system with the primary valve controlled by the rider and the secondary throttle valve controlled by the engine management system. | |
| An automatic Idle Speed Control (ISC) system is integrated into each throttle body, and produces stable idle while improving cold starting and reducing emissions immediately after start up. | |
| Dual spark plugs cylinder heads feature iridium spark plugs reduce spark plug electrode degradation and allow the electrode to be finer producing a more intense, hotter spark and further enhancing combustion. | |
| Single valve springs reduce inertia weight and mechanical losses while maintaining accurate valve control. | |
| SFV650 is powered by a sporty fuel injected, DOHC 90-degree V-twin engine based on the proven SV650 powerplant famous for its long term reliability, broad power and quiet rumble. | |
| An oval throttle pulley helps smooth low rpm/mid-range power delivery. | |
| Conventional pressed in iron liners are replaced with Suzuki's own race proven nickel-phosphorus-silicon-carbide coating (SCEM), which reduces friction and improves heat transfer, durability and ring seal. | |
| The SFV650 arrives with a lighter and narrower radiator to increase efficiency, while an enhanced liquid to liquid oil cooler reduces weight. | |
| TRANSMISSION Features | |
| A strong and smooth shifting 6-speed transmission. | |
| Clutch release mechanism is changed from ball-screw type to cam type system and the transmission gear engagement dogs are strengthened to help improve shifting of the six speed transmission. | |
| To reduce mechanical noise, a scissor type primary gear is split length wise with the two halves spring loaded, and the clutch and countershaft sprocket covers are now double layered for additional sound reduction. | |
| Chassis Features | |
| Compact trellis steel frame featuring 25-degree of rake and 104 mm of trail for stable and sporty handling with a beautiful look. | |
| Chassis and bodywork are designed to be as slim as possible where the fuel tank meets the seat, the outside forward edges of the seat are rounded and features a low 796mm seat height. All to make the new SFV650 easier for entry level riders to comfortably put both feet on the ground when stopping and for maximum rider confidence. | |
| Dual floating front brake discs measure 290mm in diameter and work with dual piston calipers. | |
| Rear shock spring is preload adjustable over a seven step range and rear wheel travel is 130 mm. | |
| Single rear shock is connected to the rectangular-section steel swingarm through a progressive linkage which allows the suspension to react smoothly to bumps and improve overall ride comfort. | |
| Front forks feature 41mm stanchions with spring preload adjustability over a 15mm range and front wheel travel is 125 mm. | |
| Additional Features | |
| Instrument cluster is positioned above the headlight and provides an analog tachometer, LCD digital speedometer, LCD dual trip-meters and odometer. An LCD digital clock, and LCD digital gear position indicator are also featured. Indicator lights include a two way remaining fuel warning lamp, backed up by an LCD digital reserve trip meter. | |
| Fuel pump is lighter and more compact and located within the 15 liter fuel tank. | |
| Organically shaped multi reflector headlight incorporates high and low beams as well as a position light and flanked by chrome lens turn indicators. | |
| Compact combination tail and brake light is packaged neatly underneath the rear seat framed by stylish seat rails and also flanked by clear lens turn indicators. | |
| Dunlop qualifiers sport radials are fitted with a 120/70ZR17 front and a 160/60ZR17 rear tire. | |
| Stylish 17 inch cast aluminum ?alloy wheels feature a new five spoke design with a 17 x 3.50 inch front wheel and a 17 x 5.00 inch rear wheel. | |
| Tubular handlebar shape and footpeg positions are designed to work with the seat position to add to rider comfort. | |
| The carefully shaped seat has ample padding and the rear edges are bolstered to support the rider's hips well. | |
| New European inspired styling treatment features sleek flowing lines and an unmatched elegant new look | |
