Product description
Engine FeaturesSCEM (Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material) cylinder allows for improved heat transfer, lightweight and tighter piston clearance
Powerful 454cc, SOHC, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine designed for a wide powerband and strong performance
Uses a cylinder canted forward for lower center of gravity, reduced engine height and lower seat height
Compact 4-valve cylinder head with large intake valves and straight intake ports for increased cylinder charging efficiency
Sportbike-derived chain-and-gear camshaft drive system allows a short/narrow cylinder head design and reduced overall engine height
Plasma Spray Coating (SPSC) cylinders allows lightweight cylinder construction resistance to heat and friction
Suzuki fuel injection system featuring high-performance motorcycle technology provides excellent throttle response, fuel efficiency and quick engine starts under all operating conditions
QuadMatic: CVT-type automatic transmission designed for maximum versatility and convenience : fender-mounted gate-type shifter operation for high/low forward ranges, plus neutral and reverse
Advanced engine brake system minimizes free-wheeling to reduce downhill speed
Electric 2WD, 4WD and differential-lock 4WD - convenient handlebar-mounted push-button controls allow the rider to easily select the right setting for any traction condition
Compact torque-sensing limited-slip front differential offers more powerful traction plus light steering effort, including a differential-lock system that provides serious four-wheel-drive traction.
High capacity aluminum radiator with large diameter cooling fan for stable engine operating temperature
Chassis FeaturesIndependent double A-arm front suspension with 7.1 inches of wheel travel includes large diameter shock absorbers with 5-way spring preload adjustment
Fully independent, I-beam rear suspension with long suspension travel (7.9 inches) includes 5-way preload adjustable shock absorbers and large diameter rear stabilizer sway-bar
Polyethylene skid plate provides front-to-rear under carriage protection with minimal resistance over rocks and rough terrain. Durable plastic guards protect the front and rear half shafts
Sealed, multi-plate rear brake system clutch-type design provides high durability, reduced unsprung weight and low-maintenance
