Is the Suzuki gs650e the same as the GS750?
What the GS650E has is exactly the same performance that the original GS750 had. Both the original GS750 tested by Cycle World and this GS650E turned a 12.83 sec. quarter mile. Not just the numbers, but the performance feel of the machines is the same.
Where are the valve heads on a Suzuki 650?
Like the original Suzuki four-strokes, the 650s use eight valve heads with bucket and shim followers connecting the double overhead camshafts to the valves. The shims are on top of the follower buckets, where they can be changed easily enough, with Suzuki’s valve adjustment tool. Cams don’t have to be removed for adjustment on the 650s.
What’s the difference between a GS 650 E and G?
Both the E and the G model 650s use the same bore and stroke and top ends of the engines are identical. Only at the bottom end are they different, the G model getting plain bearings, the E getting the rollers from the 550. That difference, of course, means that the G operates with higher oil pressures and a different oil pump.
How many valves does a Suzuki gs750e have?
And 16 valves. Suzuki engineers used increasingly oversquare cylinders, with a wider 67mm bore and short 53mm stroke for the 747cc motor, topped off by something called the Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber (U.S. patent #3533577, for anyone caring to know more). This was back when the Japanese loved hanging a lot of initials on their technology.
