If you've been reading RideApart for a while now, it’s obvious that I love sport-touring motorcycles. And in my not-so-humble opinion, they make the best touring bikes. If you prefer to take the twisty way to wherever you’re going, they can collect an equal number of miles and smiles along the way. They’re also comfortable, thanks to an upright riding position, and are generally exciting to ride at speed. Add some wind protection, lockable saddle bags and the usual tech we find on modern motorcycles, and there’s not much room to complain.
Adding to its lineup of new and updated models for 2027, Suzuki just announced that the SV-7GX will be coming to the US next year. Labeled as a “Crossover” model on the company’s website, sitting just below the GSX-S1000GX+, the SV-7GX is “designed to deliver crossover-class versatility to a wider range of riders,” according to Suzuki.
