The 2012 SFV650 Gladius is Suzuki's way of telling how cool things can become when technology meets fashion the right way. Often referred toa s the Japanese version of the Ducati Monster, the Gladius brags on its exposed trellis frame and skimpy bodywork,all emphasizing the agile character of this v-twin middleweight beast.
An awesome city slicer, the Gladius can also travel the extra mile and longer trips are not a problem, especially for those who like the wind in their face. Compact and sharp-turning, the SFV650 Gladius is exceedingly user-friendly and can put a big smile on the face of both newer and seasoned riders.
