Suzuki GSX650F
By admin | August 31, 2007
Introducing a sporty all-arounder ready to deliver great fun. The broad power and refined response of its fuel-injected 4-cylinder engine. The dynamic look of a fully faired sportbike and all-day comfort. The GSX650F - a modern incarnation of the classic 650cm3 motorcycle, with high style and high value.
GSX650F Features
- 656cm3 4-cylinder fuel-injected engine built for broad power, refined response, fewer emissions and better fuel economy.
- Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) cylinder plating makes for better heat transfer, ring seal while reducing blowby and mechanical losses.
- Hard, smooth chrome-nitride Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating on the upper compression and oil control piston rings reduces friction and wear while improving sealing.
- Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) digital fuel injection system results in improved power delivery, a more linear response, better fuel mileage and less emissions.
- The SDTV system uses engine-computer-operated secondary valves to maintain optimum intake-air velocity for maximum combustion efficiency.
- Compact multi-fine-hole injectors in each throttle body improve fuel atomization and better combustion efficiency.
- Comprehensive ignition-timing control, with separate maps for each cylinder using feedback from multiple sensors.
- Separate ignition coils for each spark plug cap help minimize voltages losses.
- Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system injects fresh air into the exhaust ports to ignite unburned hydrocarbons and reduce carbon monoxide emissions.
- Automatic Idle Speed Control (ISC) system improves cold starting and reduces emissions at start-ups.
- Efficient engine-cooling system, using a large-capacity radiator and an engine-computer-controlled cooling fan.
- Exhaust system carrying a catalyst and an oxygen sensor.
- Multi-plate clutch friction material optimized for better shifting feel. Clutch cylinder piston ratios carefully selected for easier clutch-lever pull.
- The GSX650F, one of the cleanest-running middleweight Suzuki motorcycles ever built, meets tough Euro 3 and TIER 2 emissions standards.
- 41mm-stanchion-tube KYB front forks with adjustable spring preload and a full 130mm (5.12 inches) of travel.
- Single-shock rear suspension features KYB shock absorber with adjustable spring preload and rebound damping.
- Double-cradle tubular steel frame designed with optimum torsional rigidity well-matched to the engine’s power and torque output.
- Wheelbase is 1,470mm (57.9 inches) with 26 degrees of rake and 108mm (4.3 inches) of trail.
- Three-spoke cast aluminum-alloy wheels shod with 120/70ZR17M/C (58W) and 160/60ZR17 M/C (69W) radial tires.
- Dual 310mm (12.2-inch) floating-disc front brakes with four-piston calipers and 240mm (9.5-inch)-disc rear brake.
- One-piece integrated rider/passenger seat designed for comfort with or without a passenger. A relatively low 770mm (30.3-inch) seat height.
- Riding position chosen for a finely balanced mix of sportiness and all-around comfort.
- Rubber-mounted handlebars reduce vibration reaching the rider.
- Analog tachometer, LCD speedometer, odometer, fuel gauge, clock, dual trip meters, reserve trip meter and gear position indicator.
- GSX-R racing-inspired bright shift light to remind rider to upshift, programmable at any engine speed up to redline.
- GSX-R-series-like full fairing, vertically stacked multi-reflector headlights display Suzuki’s sportbike DNA.
- The 19-liter fuel tank is neatly integrated with the fairing and tail section for a distinct sporty look.
