BRISTOL MOTORCYCLES EXPANDS MID-DISPLACEMENT LINEUP WITH ALL-NEW KOVE 625X AND KOVE 625V IN THE PHILIPPINES
OFFICIAL RELEASE: Bristol Group | PUBLISHER: ADVAI
MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Bristol Motorcycles, the official authorized distributor of KOVE Moto in the Philippines, has officially announced the new arrival of two long-awaited mid-displacement models: the KOVE 625X adventure-tourer and the KOVE 625V sport cruiser.
Designed to meet the demands of both daily highway commutes and long-distance provincial touring, both models introduce upgraded 578cc powertrain platforms, refined chassis engineering, and modern rider-assist technologies tailored for Philippine Road conditions.
KOVE 625X: Engineered for All-Terrain Adventure
The KOVE 625X serves as the next-generation evolution of KOVE’s middleweight adventure platform, offering significant enhancements in output, structural rigidity, and long-range comfort over previous generations.
At its core is an upgraded 581cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine capable of producing higher power output and optimized low-to-mid-range torque. Paired with a 6-speed transmission featuring an assist and slipper clutch, the engine is tuned to deliver effortless highway cruising and tractability when navigating rough gravel or dirt paths.
• Extended Touring Range: Outfitted with a high-capacity 21.5-liter fuel tank, the 625X drastically reduces the need for frequent refueling stops on long-distance provincial rides.
• Adventure-Spec Chassis: Built on a lightweight, high-strength steel frame paired with fully adjustable, long-travel KYB suspension. It runs on cross-spoke tubeless wheels (21-inch front, 18-inch rear) fitted with dual-purpose tires, offering excellent ground clearance and impact absorption for harsh terrain.
• Comprehensive Tech Suite: Standard equipment includes a 7-inch full-color TFT display with turn-by-turn navigation mirroring, switchable dual-channel ABS (allowing rear ABS deactivation for off-road use), a multi-level Traction Control System (TCS), fully integrated crash guards, Automotive-Grade safety millimeter-wave radar (Lane Change Assist, Rear Collision warning, Blind Spot Detection) and an adjustable windscreen.
KOVE 625V: A High-Capacity Modern V-Twin Cruiser
The KOVE 625V introduces a bold, muscular silhouette to the brand’s lineup, targeting riders looking for standard-setting cruiser comfort without sacrificing agility or technology.
Powered by a newly engineered 578cc DOHC 8-valve liquid-cooled 75-degree V-twin engine, the 625V provides a classic rumble and linear torque delivery across the rev range. Its low-slung stance and low center of gravity make it accessible to riders of varying skill levels and heights.
• Innovative Dual-Fuel Tank System: To overcome the traditional fuel capacity limitations of custom cruiser styling, the 625V utilizes a dual-tank configuration—combining a 15-liter main teardrop tank with a 5-liter auxiliary sub-tank located under the seat. This 20-liter total capacity centralizes vehicle mass while providing a theoretical range of up to 500 kilometers.
• Comfort & Personalization: Features an ultra-accessible 700mm seat height, forward-set foot controls, wide sweep-back handlebars, and adjustable ergonomics to accommodate different rider physiques during extended highway runs.
• Premium Mechanical Components: Equipped with inverted front forks, twin rear shock absorbers, dual front disc brakes with radial-mount calipers, dual-channel ABS, TCS, a belt final drive for low-maintenance operation, and a round retro-modern TFT instrument panel with Bluetooth connectivity.
The Kove 625X is available in three colorways—White, Blue, and Black—with a suggested retail price (SRP) of ₱448,800 and a special introductory price of ₱418,800. Meanwhile, the Kove 625V comes in Shiny Black, Green, and Silver, retailing for ₱418,800 SRP with an introductory offer of ₱388,800.
