2009 Suzuki GSF1250 Bandit GT
Much like the 650 model, the Bandit 1250S has a water-cooled motor specially designed for the Bandit. The previous 1157 cc air/oil-cooled motor did not meet Euro 3 emissions regulations.While the new 1255 cc engine produces almost identical horse power and torque figures as the old air cooled engine, the big difference is in where in the RPM band peak torque is produced. The standard Bandit 1250 model has a liquid-cooled, fuel injected, DOHC engine featuring a bore and stroke of 79.0mm x 64.0mm. On 2009 models the cylinders are plated with Suzuki’s "Composite Electrochemical Material", and a secondary balancer shaft further smoothens the rides.
