Compact & lightweight 4-stroke, 4-cylinder,
liquid-cooled engine designed for overall weight reduction, optimum combustion
efficiency and power delivery
Cylinder head with compact combustion chamber design, high compression ratio,
large intake and exhaust ports for improved intake and exhaust efficiency and
high power output
Lightweight titanium valves with steel alloy springs and aluminum spring
retainers operated by thin-wall hollow camshafts to reduce weight and inertia
Lightweight forged pistons with chrome-nitride-coated upper compression rings
and oil control rings for a harder, more consistent ring finish and reduced
friction
One-piece cylinder block and upper crankcase section is equipped with
ventilation holes between cylinders to reduce crankcase pressure and mechanical
loss
Tapered, double-barrel throttle body design features Suzuki's SDTV throttle
valve system, plus multi-hole-type injectors for optimum fuel atomization and
throttle response
Hydraulic cam chain tensioner fed by internal oil passageway system - eliminates
external oil hose to reduce weight
32-bit ECM with high ROM memory, plus 22 trigger-pole rpm provide precise
control of fuel and ignition systems - all housed in a small, lightweight
control box
Lightweight stainless steel exhaust system featuring a high capacity muffler
with titanium core pipes and aluminum outer sleeve
High capacity oil cooler and large trapezoidal-shaped radiator provide efficient
engine cooling - includes compact cooling fan assembly designed for improved air
flow
Close-ratio, six-speed transmission and cable-operated clutch
Chassis Features
Aggressive-styled bodywork design with minimal frontal area, plus ram air intake
positioned close to center for high airbox pressure and intake efficiency
Vertical-type multi-reflector headlight, plus compact LED taillight and
aerodynamic turn signals
Compact instrument cluster features a step-motor-driven analog tach, digital LCD
speedometer and programmable rpm indicator light - also includes LED indicators
for turn signals, high beam, neutral light, coolant temp, oil pressure and fuel
level
Aluminum frame with extruded main spar design similar to GSX-R600 for optimum
balance of size, weight and rigidity
Aluminum swingarm with extruded main arms and cast cross brace for torsional
strength and minimal weight
Compact 17-liter fuel tank - designed with narrow width at the rider's knees for
easier movement and weight transfer
Inverted Showa cartridge-type front fork with 43mm inner tubes and fully
adjustable damping and spring preload
Fully adjustable Showa piggy-back shock absorber with large diameter shock
piston rod for improved damping performance
Radial-mount 4-piston brake calipers for maximum braking performance - system
includes radial piston front master cylinder for improved brake lever feel
Dual-opposed-piston rear brake caliper indexed to the swingarm - eliminates
conventional torque arm for further weight reduction
Lightweight cast aluminum wheels and high performance radial tires
