Suzuki to unveil SV650X at Tokyo Motor Show next month

Suzuki Motor Corporation will unveil the #SV650X at this year’s #Tokyo Motor Show – which takes place from 27 October to 5 November – an evolution of the SV650 Rally #Concept shown at last year’s event.

The original #Concept was designed to pay homage to the tarmac rally cars and bikes of the 1970s. ‘Neo-retro’ design sees the #SV650X get a newly-styled bikini fairing and tinted screen, fog lamps, clip-on handlebars, with a tuck-roll – already available as a genuine accessory on the SV650 – completing the look.

The Japanese firm is currently assessing market reaction and customer feedback before confirming production plans.

Suzuki GB general manager, Paul de Lusignan, commented, “The SV650 Rally #Concept generated a lot of interest at last year’s show, with retro-styled machines proving very popular among riders. The #SV650X is an evolution of that #Concept, and shows how that would translate to a production machine. Currently we cannot confirm a production schedule. We will first assess reactions to the #SV650X before finalising plans.”
