Now we haven’t seen one of these before, but now we know there’s no problem ECU remapping a Suzuki Gladius. It’s a straightforward job with good horsepower at the end. It’s essentially the same engine in the same spec as the SV650 and turns out reasonable horsepower – 75bhp to be precise.

Now looks are subjective but underneath the swoopy ergonomic styling beats the heart of a proper bike, the sort you can really make use of… though we have to say the stubby can was a little… loud.

It's a funky looking beast, the Gladius, but there's an SV650 lurking beneath the groovy shape so it's a good tool!
