In today's video we through a leg over Suzuki's SV 650x. While the SV 650 has been around for over a decade, I know because I started riding on one in 2010, this specific model is a new flavor Suzuki is offering. Instead of the upright body position, they slam you down with some clip-ons which entirely changes the ergonomics of this motorcycle. Let's see how it rides! Remember we are comparing this SV 650x with Honda's CBR 650R and Kawasaki's Ninja 650 to see which is the best 650 class motorcycle available on the market today!

I disagree with the highway portion of this review, but otherwise a good review. I got this exact bike after a 2018 KTM Duke 390. I hated being on the highway with the Duke because the handlebars would wobble constantly and the wind blast was excessive. This bike's clip-ons allow you to get low on the highway, and it feels AWESOME and stable when you're down low. I'm pretty sure the little fairing in the front helps with the wind blast. If you're coming off a small CC bike or if this is your first bike, it's an excellent choice. I fucking LOVE this thing - its fast but not suicidal-fast for those of you who aren't speed demons. I raced my buddy's Z900 and kept ahead until 90ish mph. I've taken this to 130mph two times so far and I'm sure it'll reach 135-140. You have to know what this bike is - it's not a supersport competitor, it's a hybrid naked bike that's meant for daily, reliable fun. Also, the circle front brake reservoir allows you to put a fucken silly reservoir cover on it. Definitely put an aftermarket exhaust for some low end grunt. For context, I'm 145lbs and 5'7.

Frankly, I don’t think this gentleman has much motorcycle experience. He talks about the bike feeling weird when leaning. That’s contrary to every other review I’ve ever seen. I own a standard 2018 SV650 and think it handles like it’s on rails. Plus, it’s plenty fast. I owned a BMW K1200RS which was a screamer and I don’t find the SV low on power. Please search out other reviews.

4:04 every clutch operated motorcycle had adjustable clutch. For some motorcycle manufacturer it's behind that rubber piece protecting the lever clutch play adjuster. You just need to pull the rubber aside and twist the adjuster, you can adjust to short engaged or long engaged. Sometimes it's that small analyzing detail that can get you like a motorcycle or the other way around.

I would say the CB650R is not in the same category, price wise and specially engine, 4 cylinder vs 2, I mean sure if the price are close, but they aren't. the fact that the Mt-07 is almost 700cc doesn't mean it's not comparable in the class, it's actually the direct competition of the SV and the Ninja650. So this series would be better if it had the Mt-07 in the mix.

Watching this...bothers me. I have seen a lot of your videos Chase, and I always gave you some credit and respect for your opinions. But lately...you are making a ton of mistakes on bikes you're reviewing. I don't know if it's because your trying to keep fresh content coming that you're rushing out videos and not doing the needed homework on what you're talking about, or if you just don't get to spend enough time with the bike to make a fair review of it. I know this is a first ride, not a review, but there is a lot of things you say here that aren't correct...or partially correct. I get it, you're only one man and it's one man's opinion. I just think that when you have a large influence pool, it's only fair to them and the bikes you ride to give them an honest shake. Knowing a bike has a Vtwin over a Parallel is just ONE such thing. The SV650x, as an example, has that SUzuki throttle technology that makes it very hard to stall, which makes for very smooth take offs even when you don't know how to ride well. It's a cafe bike, not a sport, and that has a huge bearing on it's design and how you sit on it. Look, all I'm saying is, it's a waste of everyone's time, yours included, when you don't take the time to get the facts straight before you make such a video. If this is how you want to make vids, fine, but I'd just change the title to "Watch me ride SV650x" and not talk about it. At least that way, you're not giving bad info to people who might seriously be considering buying that bike. I wouldn't even be saying something if this wasn't something that seems to be happening more and more as we go forward. Slow down bro, take the time to make accurate, quality content. It keeps the egg off your face. Peace.

When Suzuki went from the gen 2 to the gen 3 SV650 they made the rear wheel wider, but used the same size tire (160), when it really should be a 170. One of the British bike mags swapped the rear tire to a wider one and they said it transformed the bike. I have a 2017 SV650 and I"m very curious to try the wider rear tire, as my impression is that it's weird leaned over as well. I'm a newer rider so my opinion doesn't mean much, but between the data and shared observations it would be a cool to compare. Cheers.

Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to try it yet. In the fall I had the chance to ride the new Yamaha Mt-09, and it was amazing. I really love my little SV650 but it just doesn't fit me. I'm 6'1" and about 250lbs. The angles of the handlebar and the foot to gear lever are hard on me. I've spent a lot of time adjusting everything but different bars and a taller seat are what I need. So by the time I put new bar on, new tires, new seat, new this new that, I could just get into a bike that fits better. The power of the MT-09 was really nice, but it was the ergo for me that sold me. So I'm working on trading in my SV650 for one. I still wish I couldn't tried the tire experiment though, I hope it works out for you. Cheers. @@bhok1971

@@bhok1971 I don't know if you ever tried the wider rear, but I just put on a new set of Dunlops with the 170 rear. It's massively better. The front and rear feel cohesive like they are finally turning together instead of taking two different paths through a corner. The bike takes and stays on a line through corners now. The steering feel is much better and more balanced, and the low speed corners and parking lot stuff also feels better, more balanced, and controllable. I wish I'd gone to the 170 rear ages ago.

@@zachbuckley4842 I actually just fitted a 180 a month ago (RoadSmart 4) and also experience everything you stated. Very nice. It measures at exactly 170mm wide though, because of the slight pinch on the 5" rim. Did you also fit a RoadSmart?

Chase, shouldn't MT-07 be a part of this comparison with its 689 engine, ad similar pricing it's a machine i would consider if i was looking for something with 650 displacement.

You do know that it is not a parallel twin right? It is a 90° L twin. Also that bike is not about how it looks. Yes it has some styling cues from cafe racer's from the past, but that's not the point. It's not about being cool to look at, it's about a different style of handling with the lower clip ons. More weight lower on the front wheel gives more tactile feel on the front tire when leaned heavy into a corner. I have a regular sv650 with the upright handlebar. I love the bike in the city, but if I was running the mountains in California all the time I would prefer the lower, clip on handlebars on the 650x. That's the point of the lower bars on the same bike

Not gonna lie, he said he had more fun on this, but when you watch both videos he had a noticeably more fun time on the ninja. I think his only real complaint for it was the seat and you can get a bigger seat through kawasaki.

Stock Suzuki exhausts are horrendous, they're so ugly. It's like they gave up on exhaust design just to pass regulations. They probably expect you to get an aftermarket exhaust.

@@kitandrei if you look at yamaha they hide a big chunk of that exhaust under the bike. But they already designed the bike with that, with weight and distribution already calibrated for. Suzuki will need to do a major redesign to just reroute it. Too much to be putting into R&D for a bike that is going to sell regardless. To be fair too the sv is still the same bike from its inception, only tweak has been to improve the engine, so why bother.
