SUZUKI GSX-1250FA ST/SEA Touring (2011-2012) Specs, Performance & Photos

The 2012 GSX-1250FA was a great motorcycle both as a city bike and sports touring machine, but Suzuki launched the GSX-1250FA ST/SEA Touring motorcycle in 2012. The base model version received touring amenities, which made it ready to roll past the state line right from the box.

The bike came equipped with dual 33-liter side cases and a 37-liter top case, which dramatically expanded the storage capacity. Of course, other touring accessories were available for even more comfort and practical touring capabilities.

A full fairing increased the comfort on the open road, while the seat was adjustable on a 20 mm vertical scale by switching the mounting spacers between the seat and frame seat rail.

The compact 1255cc engine offered strong acceleration matched by top-end performance due to its effective engine management and emission control system, which worked in tandem with the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system, and offered excellent throttle response, smooth power delivery, and reduced emissions.

The four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine featured plated cylinder for more durability, weight reduction, and better heat transfer with a secondary balancer shaft installed that enhanced the engine's smooth operation.

The 2012 Suzuki GSX-1250FA ST/SEA delivered a power output of 96 hp at 7,500 rpm and 108 Nm (80 lb-ft) of torque at 3,500 rpm transferred to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual transmission.
