Expect More From A Middleweight Motorcycle
The Bandit 650 and Bandit 650A bring you more of everything you want from a middleweight motorcycle in its class - more performance, more versatility, more style and more freedom. Full 656cc of torque-loaded
power from its responsive in-line 4-cylinder engine across a wide rpm range, a smooth-handling chassis, and comfortable ergonomics make every quick run to the local shops, commutes or long holiday tours as
enjoyable as ever. While maintaining a fun, lightweight overall package, the Bandit 650/A come equipped with convenient features like height adjustable seat and handlebars and
ABS (Bandit 650A only) for added freedom and versatility. It's all wrapped in sporty styling and attractive bodywork like sculpted frame covers and streamlined headlight covers, and a thoroughly "naked" design
leaving basic components like engine and frame covers well exposed for admiration. Expect more from a middleweight streetbike: the Bandit 650/A, products of Genuine Suzuki Engineering, await your command.
656cc, in-line 4-cylinder, DOHC engine delivering broad powerband characterized by abundant
low-to-mid rpm range output and torque, quick throttle response and strong roll-on acceleration.
Digital engine management system matches ignition timing to throttle opening for excellent response.
Advanced engine details including upper compression and oil control rings electro-plated with a
chrome-nitride coating. Its coating is hard and smooth to improve cylinder sealing and reduce friction.
Supporting the engine performance are proven Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)
cylinder plating and the Suzuki Advanced Cooling System (SACS) oil-cooling design, both help keep
the engine lightweight and efficient.
Suzuki's Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system injects fresh air from the airbox into the
exhaust ports, igniting unburned hydrocarbons. Lightweight 4-into-1 stainless steel exhaust system
incorporates catalyzer. Both systems keep emissions low.
Distinctive naked styling bodywork, featuring integrated, sculpted frame covers behind the steering
head, and streamlined cover integrating the 60/50W multi-reflector headlight and the instrument
cluster.
For maximum versatility and convenience, the seat height can be adjusted by 20mm (from 770mm to
790mm) and the handlebar height is adjustable by 10mm, by which the handlebars also reach back
closer to the rider. These adjustment systems allow a variety of riders to tailor the machine to
themselves.
Double-cradle, high-rigidity steel-tube frame with a rectangular-cross-section swingarm.
Front forks with 41mm (1.6in.) stanchion tubes with adjustable spring preload.
Progressive-linkage monoshock absorber rear suspension with adjustable rebound damping
and spring preload.
Dual full-floating 290mm (11.4in.) front disc brakes with 2-piston calipers, and single 240mm
(9.4in.) rear disc brake with 2-piston caliper both provide reliable stopping power.
Digitally controlled ABS (Antilock Brake System) monitors brake lever input and wheel speed,
and helps to regulate stopping power to match the amount of traction available.
(Bandit 650A only)
120/70ZR-17 front and 160/60ZR-17 rear radial tires on lightweight, hollow-spoke,
cast-aluminum-alloy wheels. Centerstand and sidestand as standard equipment.
Large 20-liter fuel tank.
Easy-to-read instrument cluster with an analog tachometer, LCD digital display for
speedometer/ odometer/ tripmeter/ fuel gauge/ clock functions, and LED indicator lights.
Distinctive taillight, and sporty and unique hexagonal turn signals with new clear lens.
