SUZUKIGSX-1250FA 2010 - 2011

　　The big Bandit got better and meaner over the years, and in 2010, Suzuki launched the GSX-1250FA model that borrowed some design cues from the acclaimed Hayabusa. The front cowl air intake ports were styled in such a way that made the bike more obviously related to the Gixxer family.

　　Fuel-injected and powered by a brawny in-line four-cylinder engine, the GSX-1250FA was both fun and evil fun and by far not a choice for new or inexperienced riders. The bike was the ultimate commuter, as the ergonomics featured long-range comfort.

　　The bike featured a classic tube-frame chassis, designed for an excellent balance between sporty handling and highway cruising comfort with suspension composed of a telescopic oil damped with adjustable preload on the front and a link-type suspension with seven-way adjustable preload and four-way adjustable rebound on the rear.

　　In the power department, the bike featured a Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection that provided smooth power delivery and extra-smooth acceleration with peak torque at a low rpm range. The 1,254cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine developed a power output of 96 hp at 7,500 rpm and 108 Nm (80 lb-ft) of torque at 3,500 rpm. The engine power was sent to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual transmission, and due to a wet weight of 257 kg (567 lbs), the bike reached a top speed of 233 kph (145 mph).
