@@jimmyneutron5679 thanks :) how fast you can go at speedo depends on some influences, for example the tire circumference. but 206 in 5th is very nice :)
Two differently configured bikes competing for the same market of 650’s. Having ridden both (to help a friend decide on a first bike), it’s nice to see the actual numbers. Thank you. He preferred the looks and feel of the team green machine, where I just couldn’t live with that lawn mower sound track from the 180 degree crank. If it was me, between the two, I’d go with the Suzuki and stick an aftermarket can (possibly a Yoshi) on the exhaust to release the sound a v-twin makes. 👍😎🇦🇺
I’m surprised the Suzuki seemed to do better on the top end. It’s what I bought, but only because purchase price plus insurance costs were less than the Kawasaki. The Z series from about a decade ago also seemed to be harder on my back when I sat on them. This confirms my suspicions about the SV speedometer, though. It seems to read WAY high…
thanks :) yep, I also thought about it and already made a poll about it in my channel. most don't like the multiscreen videos, but I guess I will do the split videos too :)
The SV has more Power, 75 hp compares to 68 hp of Z650. Therefore, we expect higher top speed. However, for daily commute and occasional touring, you don’t need this much power. Ergonomics, reliability, availability of spare parts has to be considered when buying a motorcycle.
I had rode both before i bought my 1st bike but i went with the sv650 , i just found it more comfortable and the v twin sound was what i preferred. In my opinion all round a better bike.
@@mototop_ I like the whole video because I can not do such a test here in Sydney because if you do 34km above the speed limit you will lose your license and the bike gets confiscated
@@robinhood6288 bist du dir sicher dass deine gedrosselt ist? :D 48 PS reichen eigentlich nicht aus für ein Nakedbike um 196km/h zu fahren. Außer bei Rückenwind und stark bergab. Als Beispiel: Eine Honda CB500 mit 58PS fährt 193km/h.
@@mototop_ ja meine wurde vom Kawa Händler gedrosselt und zum Tüv vorgeführt und alles eingetragen. Deswegen bin ich auch so verwundert, dass die bei euch gerade so die 200kmh knackt. die 203 kmh, erreiche ich sobald es minimal Bergab geht bei komplett gerader strecke bin ich bei 198kmh. Ich kann auch bestätigen das meine Gedrosselt ist da die nur bis 9000U/min dreht und die hat ja offen 12000 U/min.😅
Best of the Sv650: the sound of that V engine, nothing more then is clumsy and it feels heavier than the Kawasaki Best of the Z650: small and easy to maneuver, and previous models (Er6n 1st and 2nd gens are lighter and with more powerful engines, giving more power/weight ratio)
The fazer is just stupid and lazy under 5k/rpm! Throttle response 0! Only good at high rpm with constant shifting! While the SV can rush your adrenalin from anywhere, and can even surprise you! I know this firsthand as I have SV, and my friend fz6, so I can compare… And dont even let me start on how better it handles over the fazer anytime, anywhere 😉
It not only depends on the rider. It also depends on the surface friction ratio, the weather (humidity, temperature, wind), the altitude, the power output due to emission regulations in the country, loaded fuel etc.
Your SV650S is not naked, it has a fairing, that makes a difference. And is 185kph measured with GPS? If not you can't compare the speeds. And you have to consider, for example: to reach the double topspeed with the same vehicle, you need 8-times of power. So if you reach 100kph with 10hp, you need 8x10hp=80hp for 200kph. Just to show that you need much more power to gain speed.
@@tomas-eb6ti as you say: a 50hp bike is able to go OVER 160km/h. A bike with fairing (for example Supersport bike like a CBR600RR) can go about 190km/h with 50hp. So with 400hp you can go about 380km/h.
@@mototop_ it's 185kph on the dashboard so probably 160 GPS, I didn't know that we needed so much more power to reach higher top speed, that's interesting to know ! Also the fairing must make a bigger difference than I thought ! Thanks for the explanation mate 😊
Are you actually joking? No side by side comparison of the numbers? So what, you expect me to remember all the figures for both bikes? I don't even know which was quicker to 100 which makes this whole video kind of pointless.
Calm down 😉 I do all these videos just beside my dayly fulltime job and family.... But my latest comparison video has all the figures in comparison at the end. Please check. Is this okay for you? ua-cam.com/video/0ZUA1bcGV1Q/v-deo.htmlsi=W2UU5RzDNeJWZIPQ

Nice video, I own a sv650x from 2018 and it seems like you slightly shortshifted from 5th to 6th. Yesterday I went about 206 in 5th gear (not gps)

Both bikes are great. Have the SV and I am happy with it.
so you tested the Kawa too?
@@mototop_ It was a bit to cramped for me. I rode the older model, the ER-6F, can check it. :)
I would like to see and the end of the video the statistics of both bikes at the same time, just to compare them easily
Thanks!
yep, next time I will do it ;) thanks for the hint

the old Kawasaki ER-6 is said to be faster than the new Z650. Would be interesting to compare the old Kawa with the old Suzuki :)
@@mototop_ Would be interesting. One review of the ER-6 pegged it as a bit slow!
It also looks much better than kawasaki
Hi, your content is great!
I think for this kind of vídeo a split screen with a side by side run would be better! Keep up the good work!
thanks :) yep, I also thought about it and already made a poll about it in my channel. most don't like the multiscreen videos, but I guess I will do the split videos too :)
@@mototop_ a spilt screen at the end with all the data for a direct compare would do the job for me! SV for the win 😎 great anyway!

Right, but I just show the specs :)
The sv is one of the most common for parts of all time.

Yep, the SV also has a little bit better performance
Gidday Great Job on the video. Yeah nice comparison between the tow bikes. Not much in it, But yeah Suzuki does it for me. Big Thumbs Up. Cheers Paul
Good evening Bro! :) I try to also do a split screen comparison of them. we will see how it works ;)
I love the SV650, i wish i have one.
Yep, it's a pretty nice Bike 😎

I've seen people pull 11.8s 1/4 miles on the pointy SV650s. You'd have to really nail the launch though.
11.8? I would say that's not possible. Can you prove it?
@@mototop_ that's more of a FZ6 98 hp territory
@@golf1diesel right
@@mototop_ plenty of people on the sv forums claim to hit this at the drag strip with timing tickets to prove it. Google sv 1/4 mile time.
@@1000sofusernames Also if stock or not makes a little difference. At UA-cam I've not seen any video with time below 12s.
I think there making them slower, I have a 08 Ninja 650r stock & I've had it up to 217km & I'm 230lbs
Have you measured with GPS?
Z650 Model Year 2017
My bike 💚
great :) do you have any modifications?
Can you try the acceleration of a bike bmw s1000rr 🖤
yep, I'll try to get one this year :)
Podrías hacerlo con una honda Hornet 600 del 2002?
Cuando consigo una... No es tan fácil conseguir diferentes motos para probar
Sicher das die Z650 nicht gedrosselt ist? Meine Z650 von 2020 fährt mit 48PS 195-203Kmh

What's used to measure the speed?
Gopro integrated GPS, verified with Qstarz BL-1000GT
Hi! What app can I use to measure the acceleration?
with the Gopro you just count the frames between 0 and 100 for example. But you can also buy a GPS tracker or system like Dragy, Racebos etc.
@@mototop_ thanks!
Best ever - Vollgas !!!
merci :)
Tenho uma Z650RS kawasaki a velocidade real é a mesma da Z650 ,deveria chegar a 200k por hora pelo menos! Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷🏍
a mesma motocicleta com carenagem é sempre mais rápida do que sem carenagem
SV650 so sexy...
oh yes, I love the blue wheel and frame :)
This z650 is slower than my 2009 Versys...
maybe due to new emission regulations....
W Suzu.!
what you mean?
Do mt07
Build quality of my mt07 is not that good actually...

jo, die Kawa tut sich da etwas schwerer die angegebene Leistung abzurufen
Its very clear that the fz6 was better
FZ6 has 4 cylinders. It's not really compareable with these 2 cylinder bikes.
The fazer is just stupid and lazy under 5k/rpm! Throttle response 0! Only good at high rpm with constant shifting!

Performed by an experienced rider and u couldn't get from 0-60 in less than 4 seconds?
It not only depends on the rider. It also depends on the surface friction ratio, the weather (humidity, temperature, wind), the altitude, the power output due to emission regulations in the country, loaded fuel etc.
The top speed of my 34hp restricted sv650S is 185kph, it's only 15kph more with a full 74hp ? That's disappointing

Just to show that you need much more power to gain speed.
@@mototop_ it's a wrong scale also, a 50hp bike is able to go over 160km/h so due to this state, to go over 320km/h you need a 400hp bike
