Suzuki SV650X

Suzuki SV650X Review Suzuki,however, seemed to have gone the other way and offered a modern interpretation of a café racer at a reasonable price tag. At P459,000, the Suzuki SV650X offers a little less chrome and a little more technology. Yet, it certainly has the character and charm of the racers of old. There’s no mistaking the headlight cowl and the clip-on bars. To complete the look, the gas tank sports a Suzuki logo in block letters on each side instead of the usual “S” badge. The SV650X is propelled by a 645cc liquid-cooled, V-twin DOHC engine matted to a six-speed manual transmission and it produces 74.9 HP at 8,500 RPM. Power delivery is rather tamed on low revs, making it a perfect daily ride in the urban setting. This is made possible by the TI-ISC (Throttle body Integrated Idle Speed Control) which has a Low RPM Assist control function. When moving off or riding at low engine rpm, the ECM activates the ISC system. By opening the ISC circuits, the engine rpm rises slightly. Normally, in launching the motorcycle, engine rpm drops when the clutch is engaged. Low RPM Assist helps the rider achieve a smoother launch operation in the low rpm range. This makes it easier to ride at low speed in stop-and-go traffic. Suzuki Sv650X Review Article here: #suzukiSV650X Music: Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0
