Suzuki discounts (covid 19)

[Ecosseven]

I see that Suzuki are offering a temporary £500 discount on a number of their bikes if you place an order before the end of June. This includes the sv650 which takes the price down to £5,499. Fantastic price in my view and some dealers are now offering these bikes for even less!

Suzuki are definitely chasing sales. Their previous offer of £500 off a new bike has been withdrawn.................. however if you take a test ride and then order a new bike guess what......... a £500 saving off the RRP!

Some cracking deals in my opinion of you are after a new bike.

An SV650 is now £5,499 and a GSX-S750 is £7500.

Interesting to compare current prices with what they cost years ago. I reckon new suzuki's represent decent value these days assuming you don't need all the bells and whistles that some other manufacturers offer.

I paid £3995 (OTR) or a new unregistered Honda Hornet in 1999. Accordingly to the bank of England inflation calculator that is £6975 in today's money and the current CB650R is £7200 so not to far away. I'm sure the current CB is the better bike but interesting how close they are in price.

I paid £3745 (OTR) for a new unregistered SV650 in 2003. The inflation adjusted price is £5965 so I do think £5,499 is a decent price and you are likely to get a little more off with determined haggling. Again the current SV650 is a probably a better bike than my K3 model.
