well some interesting stuff! - SV650.org

Its more than likely the SV650 K7 will come with twin spark head as per the DL650K7.

You see its been subject of some debate recently whether or not it will or whether the DL650 has got them. Servicing the K7 DL650 today and it has a plug on the top of the head and one on the right hand side of the block half way down too!. Well news to me even though i am a suzuki dealer!. Our first K7 didnt have this - dont ask why, but i remember checking when the question was posed on here a little while ago!

No bulletins to tell us or new service info!. Cheers Suzuki

But the upside is the customer that has the DL650K7 although it does have a 22L tank, he is getting 285 miles from a tank at best, with a worst of 240miles!. Thats way up on the DL650K6!!.

So once confirmed what the specs will be for the SV (nothing on the ABS issue yet) you would be looking at high MPG i would reckon!

Looking at the Suzuki GB site, there is a SV650 ABS pix.

Trouble is i have asked countless times whether it will have ABS or not and no one knows yet!. I have had answers such as more than likely not, to we havent decided yet!.

So1l is 0.22 gallons

so 4.84 gallon tank, worst 49.6mpg best 59.9mpg

Ive got 20l so 4.4 gallons

worst 180-ish miles, best about 220-ish miles , worst* 40.9 best 50mg.

So he's about 10 different. Interesting.

Very worst I ever had was about 34mpg loaded in Germany on windy day

So that DL is economic.
