Now if they'll upgrade the wiring, the brakes and the tires at the same time... Remember the LS650 is something of a loss leader. Everything that gets "upgraded" means the MSRP also gets "upgraded." And I expect that, no matter what tires got put on it, there would be the eternal complaining about "those lousy OEM tires."

Re: 2013 Suzuki S40! Fuel injected?! Reply #21 - 09/28/12 at 13:50:16 Unless it does not have a gain in power, increasing the gear ratio of the 5th would not make any sense. The 5th gear is merely for economics (and for reducing noise), it is not a true 5th gear. Yesterday it had in the specs "Suzuki Fuel injection", today it came back with "MIKUNI BS40, Single" http://www.suzukicycles.com/Product%20Lines/Cycles/Products/Boulevard%20S40/2... What will it be tomorrow? "It's not a trick, it's a Diesel!"

I'm ol skool like that.  In my opinion the LS650 should always be carbed, but I have to admit that may change later down the road, should Suzuki decide to keep the machine in their lineup for the future.

Usually fuel injection systems do have a small pump in the tank, that's right. It does not need to be very strong and therefore it can be rather tiny. Otherwise the lost capacity could be recovered by slight re-designing of the tank, anyhow. And anyway, they have to get the little pump in it and it should be serviceable. Another benefit of the EFI system can be enhanced fuel management, at least must be!

Reply #27 - 09/28/12 at 19:14:01 I am going to check tomorrow at the dealership to see if the 2013 will be coming with EFI or was there a typo.  If you look at the price ($100 more than last year) it is too low for an EFI bike.  I think it is a typo.

I heard that in 2013, all 2 wheelers over a certain displacement must be fuel injected. So far, it seems Suzuki has been mysteriously silent on what their 2013 line up will contain.
