SUZUKI Boulevard S40 (2011-2012) Specs, Performance & Photos

The simple fact that the Suzuki Boulevard S40 motorcycle was still in production in 2012 after so many years proved that it had great success.

Dedicated to those riders who wanted to take things gradually and build experience step by step, the Boulevard S40 also provided cool looks, lightweight transport, easy maintenance, and solid practicality.

In the visual department, the bike came in a very attractive package with styling cues from the larger Boulevard models and with a retro vibe.

The custom-styled flat handlebar provided a clean, sporty look, while the custom-styled rearview mirrors offered an attractive appearance similar to the larger Boulevard models. The sleek one-piece saddle featured a low seating position that allowed a comfortable reach to the handlebar over the tear drop-shaped fuel tank with a flushed-mounted speedometer.

Right from the factory, the bike rolled out on a set of polished wire-spoked wheels with a wide 15 inches rear tire and a 19 inches front tire that offered a classic cruiser look.

In the power performance department, the 2012 Suzuki Boulevard S40 took its thrust from a 652cc four-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine that featured Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber (TSCC) that delivered strong low-end power and torque. It also benefited from an electric starter with automatic decompression for quick, easy engine starts and a precise electronic ignition system that included a maintenance-free battery.
