Description
The 1037cc, 90 degree DOHC, liquid-cooled, four-stroke V-twin engine is designed to deliver exceptional performance across the entire power line.
The perfect primary balance provided by the 90-degree L-twin design negates the need for any balancer shaft or rubber mount, as the motor has smooth power pulses.
The pistons were designed with the use of FEM analysis to achieve the ideal stiffness and weight.
Suzuki Electrochemical Material Composite (SCEM) cylindrical holes are integrated into the upper crankcase to reduce weight, increase durability, reduce friction and excellent heat dissipation.
Dual throttle bodies with the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve System (SDTV) provide precise throttle response and increase torque in the low to mid-rpm range, while still producing maximum performance.
The EFI system employs 10-hole injectors in each throttle body to improve fuel atomization for superior combustion efficiency and frugal fuel consumption.
The advanced 32-bit ECM also operates Automatic Idle Speed Control (ISC), which improves cold start and stabilizes engine idle.
The ISC in the V-Strom 1000 has Suzuki’s low-rev assist feature that perfectly adjusts engine speed during takeoff and low-speed driving to smooth power delivery and help reduce the chance of the rider stops the motorcycle.
The refined exhaust configuration with a single silencer reduces weight and has a lower center of gravity to improve handling and maneuverability.
The Suzuki Exhaust Tuning (SET) servo-controlled butterfly valve on the tailpipe helps improve torque, response, and acceleration, especially in the low to mid-rpm range.
The V-Strom 1000’s exhaust has a pair of in-line catalysts, from a single catalyst in the previous model, to achieve an effective level of emission control while maintaining flow to preserve engine performance.
Combined with efficient exhaust, Suzuki’s Pulsed Secondary Air Injection (PAIR) system injects fresh air into the exhaust ports to meet a variety of US emission standards. USA and international without sacrificing performance.
The modern transistorized digital ignition system contributes to a more complete combustion by igniting the mixture at the ideal time.
Twin iridium-type spark plugs are placed in each cylinder to provide a hotter, more condensed spark, but last longer than conventional spark plugs.
The output of the six-speed, close ratio transmission is managed by the Suzuki Clutch Assistance System (SCAS). This system works like a slipper clutch by allowing a small amount of slippage of the clutch to allow for smooth downshifts. It also functions as an auxiliary clutch, making the clutch lever light and precise.
