| Engine: |
4-stroke, four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine
with DOHC
- 16-valves, Twin Swirl combustion chambers, plus gear-driven counterbalancer for
smooth operation.
- Light-weight shim-under-bucket valve
train with narrow 14 degree valve angle for high combustion chamber efficiency.
- High efficiency liquid-cooling system
for optimum engine operating temperature-including compact air-cooled oil cooler, plus
oil-jet piston cooling.
- SCEM (Suzuki Composite Electro-chemical Material) plated
cylinders minimize cylinder size and improve heat dissipation.
- Large volume 4 into 2 exhaust system with stainless steel head
pipes and lightweight aluminum silencers.

| Body: |
-Aerodynamic fairing design with low drag
coefficient. All fairing components have been designed for reduced drag and turbulence. -Full instrumentation with ultra-thin step-motor construction. Includes fuel
gauge, clock, LCD odometer and twin tripmeters with fuel consumption gauge.
-Unique, vertically mounted dual headlight provides a bright,
wide beam with a 60W projector-type high-beam and a 55W low-beam halogen bulb.
-Hinged fuel tank simplifies maintenance and provides easy
access to the airbox and air filter. |
