SUZUKI GSX-650F ABS (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, Suzuki released the GSX-650F ABS, a sport-touring motorcycle derived from the 600cc GSX-R supersport-class bike but engineered to deliver more street-able performance in less extreme scenarios.

The engine displacement got bigger, but the peak power and torque deployment points have been shifted lower down the rev scale for a leaner riding experience. The GSX-650F ABS was delivered with an Anti-Lock Braking System and Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) as standard options and was a comfy all-rounder suitable for both commuting and fast fun around tight bends.

The bike featured a double cradle steel frame that provided excellent balance, nimble handling, and unmatched comfort with a rubber-mounted handlebar for reduced vibrations and a 41 mm fork on the front designed for a smooth ride.

The 2014 Suzuki GSX-650F ABS took its thrust from a 656cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered a power output of 86 hp at 10,500 rpm and 61 Nm (45 lb-ft) of torque with a peak at 10,500 rpm. With a six-speed manual transmission and a wet weight of 245 kg (541 lbs), the bike reached a top speed of 211 kph (131 mph).

The hot burned gases escaped from the engine through a large-capacity exhaust system fitted with a high-capacity catalyzer and an oxygen sensor required to meet the EURO3 regulations but still provided strong performance throughout the rpm range.
