1993 Suzuki GSX 1100 F Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Suzuki's sport touring motorcycle platform, the 1993 Suzuki GSX 1100 F relies on a 1128 cc (68.8 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 136 HP (99.3 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 111.8 Nm (82.5 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120.6 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the GSX 1100 F measures 251 kg (553 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.54 HP/kg (1.85 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,535 mm (60.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
