Bought this bike a month ago and i`m very impressed with it. Been running it in but couldn`t resist giving it a squeeze- and it flies!! Don`t have much to compare it to being my first bike but this is what i know-
Gets 150 miles out of a tank that makes it about 50mpg. Handles really well.
Taking corners faster than i do in my car already- this is the confidence it inspires in me. Don`t even feel i`m pushing it yet.
Looks great. I got the blue one and it is always turning heads. A bit different from the sports bikes and better than a commuter.
Very comfortable riding position. I`m 5'8" and it is the perfect size. Easy to get the head down when you need to. Wind isn`t that bad anyway even at 100mph.
Hard to say what the 0-60 is but i kept up with my friend`s Nissan Skyline, so it can`t be that bad.

Suzuki SV650 - review by Breasts

Advantages: Sexy styling, useful torque, sounds nice, well balanced, cheap to own and ride
Disadvantages: Gearbox iffy when cold, forks and fixings can corrode easily, suspension OK but I'd like it a bit harder otherwise an excellent machine.
