Positioned in Suzuki's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2010 Suzuki Bandit 1250S relies on a 1255 cc (76.6 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 79.0 x 64.0 mm (3.1 x 2.5 inches) with a 10.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Bandit 1250S measures 250 kg (551 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,485 mm (58.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
