Engineered by Suzuki for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2013 Suzuki Bandit 650SA utilizes a 656 cc (40 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 65.5 x 48.7 mm (2.6 x 1.9 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,470 mm (57.9 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.
