Suzuki Motorcycle SV650 front and rear turn signal bulbs both utilize a 12496 size bulb for proper illumination. The replacement chart covers 2017 to 2019 model years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The 12496 is a halogen bulb operating at 12 volts, designated under a Philips/Osram part numbering system for specialty applications.
The Suzuki Motorcycle SV650 uses the 12496 bulb for both front and rear turn signals across the 2017-2019 model years.
Because the same bulb size applies to all four turn signal positions on the SV650, front and rear positions share a single bulb specification with no positional variation.
The 12496 designation is a manufacturer-specific part number rather than a universal industry code, meaning cross-referencing with Philips or Osram catalogues is necessary to source equivalent replacements from other brands.
As a halogen type, the 12496 produces light through a tungsten filament enclosed in a halogen gas environment, which extends filament life compared to standard incandescent bulbs.
The 12-volt rating of the 12496 is consistent with standard motorcycle electrical systems, confirming direct compatibility with the SV650's power supply without the need for voltage conversion.
