Engineered by Suzuki for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2018 Suzuki Swish utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.6 HP (6.3 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.8 Nm (7.2 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 69.4 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Swish measures 110 kg (243 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.79 kg per horsepower). 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 1,250 mm (49.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.6-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
