SWM launches the SM 650 R
Dirt bike DNA meets the road with the new supermotard SWM SM 650 RIf you’re the kind of rider who lives for moto style but yearns for riding on the roads, the SWM SM 650 R could be the answer to your supermotard prayers.
The SWM SM 650 R is the epitome of supermotard with a strong engine mated to quality suspension and brakes. The 600cc four-valve DOHC engine is fed from a 12-litre fuel tank via Mikuni D45 EFI and drives through a six-speed transmission.
"The SM 650 R is a fantastic bike for anyone who loves the look and feel of a bike boasting the basics of dirt bike styling but massaged into a classic, tough-looking street bike," said SWM Australia Brand Manager Stephen Tuff.
"The SM 650 R engine is a proven performer as it’s the same power plant utilized in the RS 650 R dual-purpose machine. It makes big gobs of horsepower that’s a lot of fun to use and the 17-inch wheels let you really make the most of what this bike has to offer on the tar."
The suspension of the SM 650 R comes via 45mm upside-down Marzocchi forks and a Sachs shock holding up the 147kg biket. A large 300mm front disc operated via Brembo hydraulics takes care of the braking duties up front while a 240mm disc is situated at the rear.
The SWM SM 650 R is available at SWM Australia dealerships mid-February for $9,490 including GST plus on road costs.
