MCN overall verdict

The old SV650 was a good bike and to be honest Suzuki didn?ˆ™t have to do much to make it a great bike once more. But they have gone one better and given us an excellent bike. Obvious improved looks but the real beauty it?ˆ™s under the skin. the lovely fuelled. smooth. punchy. little V-Twin.   As an added extra bonus it?ˆ™s easy to ride. yet still fun at the same time.

Engine MCN rating Owners' rating

Suzuki has made the new engine 10% more efficient and it?ˆ™s instantly noticeable. It?ˆ™s smoother. revs quicker as friction has been reduced. which give the Gladius more midrange. The fuelling very similar to the GSX-R range with a ten hole fuel injector and twin butterflies is near perfect.

Ride and Handling MCN rating Owners' rating The new Suzuki Gladius carries on the traits of the old SV650. which means it?ˆ™s still easy to ride for new riders as an entry level bike. but still fun enough for more experienced riders. There?ˆ™re no shocks are surprises. it?ˆ™s very forgiving. Even with the pegs scraping it?ˆ™s still compliant. Quality and Reliability MCN rating Owners' rating

The old SV650 was solid. reliable an even raced competitively in the Mini Twin race series without any major problems. The old engine could take a real hammering as the Mini Twin race series proved without any major mechanical shocks. therefore the new engine should prove just as reliable. The level of finish on the new Gladius is also much higher than the old SV
