Built around Suzuki's super motard motorcycle platform, the 2013 Suzuki V-Strom 650 ABS utilizes a 645 cc (39.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 81.0 x 62.6 mm (3.2 x 2.5 inches) with a 11.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the V-Strom 650 ABS measures 214 kg (472 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 835 mm (32.9 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,560 mm (61.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 20.06-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
