The V-Strom 650, internally designated as the ''DL650'', is a mid-weight, sport touring motorcycle launched in 2004 with a standard riding posture, fuel injection and an aluminum chassis — now in its second generation since model year 2012. Marketed in Europe, Oceania and the Americas, the DL650 is manufactured at Suzuki's ISO 14001 certified final assembly plant in Toyokawa, Japan. The V-Strom 650 trades strength in a single area for adaptability to a variety of riding conditions: commuting, cruising, adventure touring, and to a lesser degree, off-road riding.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= Motorbikestoday.com, )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= Topspeed.com, 05.27.2010, Maxx Biker )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= MotorcycleUSA.com, )〕 The bike is variously categorized as dual sport, sport enduro tourer,〔 street/adventure, commuter, or entry-level."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= Cycle World, April 2010 )〕 According to the New York Times, the V-Strom has a loyal following worldwide, and the DL650 outsells Suzuki's larger DL1000 two-to-one.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= New York Times, ROY FURCHGOTT, July 27, 2012 )〕 The name V-Strom combines ''V'', referring to the bike's V engine configuration, with the German word ''Strom'', meaning stream or current.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= Motorcycle.com )〕 ==Mechanicals== The V-Strom has a six-speed transmission with a fuel-injected and slightly retuned 645 cc engine from Suzuki's SV650 sport bike, using a two-into-one exhaust system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher= MCNews.com.au, Neale Bayly )〕 An upright, standard riding posture contributes to the bike's handling characteristics. ;Engine The engine is a 90-degree, liquid cooled, four-stroke V-twin, with bore and a stroke, four valves per cylinder, and intake and exhaust valving each with their own camshaft. Its more relaxed cam profiles, compared with the SV engine, boost the power between 4,000 and 6,500 rpm, along with slight changes to the airbox and exhaust. Relative to the SV, the crank inertia (flywheel effect) is also increased by 4% via a redesigned starter clutch.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Suzuki V-Strom 650, Sean Alexander, Mar. 21, 2004 )〕 As well, the DL650 engine uses a plastic outer clutch cover and engine sprocket cover for reduced weight and noise.〔 Unlike the SV engine, which uses cast iron cylinder sleeves, the DL650 uses Suzuki's proprietary SCEM (Suzuki Composite Electro-chemical Material) plated cylinders, a race-proven nickel-phosphorus-silicon-carbide coating for reduced weight and improved heat transfer, allowing for tighter and more efficient piston-to-cylinder clearance,〔 similar to a Nikasil coating. ;Engine electronics The DL650 engine electronics aid starting and throttle control and uses Suzuki's AFIS (Auto Fast Idle System), eliminating a fast-idle control. The engine control module (ECM) reads engine information, such as coolant temperature, via a 16-bit central processing unit (CPU), controlling the fuel system's dual throttle bodies. ;Emissions The DL650 uses Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel-injection and exhausts via a two-into-one exhaust system with a catalytic converter in the muffler. European models meet Euro 3 emissions specifications. In the US, a "PAIR" air injection system reduces CO and HC emissions. ;Chassis A stiff, twin-spar aluminum frame and swingarm accommodates a rear Showa mono-shock with hydraulic preload adjustment. Front Showa damper-rod forks are preload adjustable. The DL650 has a 19-inch front wheel and a 17-inch rear wheel. ;Instruments and bodywork The bike's instrument cluster includes a compact analog step-motor speedometer and tachometer (both with LED illumination) and a digital LCD unit with odometer, tripmeter, coolant temperature gauge, fuel gauge, LED neutral, digital clock, turn signal and high beam lights and an oil pressure warning light. An adjustable windshield allows movement of A small underseat compartment, suitable for small tools, gloves, or an owner's manual, can be accessed by removal of the seat, via a lock located at the rear of the bike, just below the built-in rack. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Suzuki V-Strom 650」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
