Built around Suzuki's allround motorcycle platform, the 2013 Suzuki GW250 relies on a 248 cc (15.1 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 53.5 x 55.2 mm (2.1 x 2.2 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the GW250 measures 182.8 kg (403 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13.25-liter (3.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
