Professional Workshop Service Manual & Technical Specifications
Suzuki Bandit GSF1250 / GSF1250S / GSF1250A / GSF1250SA — Service Manual (K7-era, 2006–2012 coverage set)
Fit confirmation is straightforward because the book is organized around the GSF1250/S/A/SA model family and then split by country/area codes and effective frame-number ranges. Expect a spec-forward reference layout (general specs, service data, torque tables, wiring systems, and component-location pages) across engine, chassis, driveline, braking, and body/electrical domains.
Covered model family (as labeled inside)
- GSF1250 / GSF1250S
- GSF1250A / GSF1250SA The contents structure also flags a supplement track for GSF1250S/SAK9 (‘09 model) within the same set.
Reference architecture you can navigate quickly
Sectioning is system-based and clearly separated: General Information, Maintenance & Lubrication, Service Data, Engine, Suspension, Driveline/Axle, Brake (incl. ABS section), Transmission/Clutch, Steering, and Body & Accessories (including Wiring Systems, lighting, and meter/horn content). That layout keeps electrical and mechanical references from blending together.
Identification and market gating (useful for exact-fit matching)
Vehicle identification pages specify VIN/frame stamping on the right side of the steering head and the engine serial on the right side of the crankcase. Country/area tables then map model variants (UK/EU/USA/Canada/California/Australia) to effective frame-number prefixes and starting ranges, which is a strong scope signal for region-specific equipment and labeling.
Quick spec density signals (what shows up early)
Dimensions, engine architecture, drivetrain ratios, electrical baselines, and capacities are presented as consolidated tables. The spec pages also separate GSF1250/S from GSF1250A/SA, including differences in dry mass, lighting specs, and fuse layouts.
Shop-reference markers you can spot fast
- VIN/frame stamp location: right steering head pipe
- Engine serial location: right crankcase
- Country/area gating uses E-xx codes with JS1… frame-number ranges
- Spec tables split GSF1250/S vs GSF1250A/SA
- ABS is treated as its own brake-domain section
- A defined special-tools list includes Suzuki tool IDs (e.g., 09900–25008 multi-circuit tester set)
Compact technical table
| Spec anchor | Value | Variant note |
|---|---|---|
| Displacement / layout | 1,255 cm³, 4-stroke liquid-cooled DOHC, 4-cyl | GSF1250 family |
| Bore × stroke | 79.0 × 64.0 mm | Shared spec baseline |
| Compression ratio | 10.5:1 | Shared spec baseline |
| Primary / final reduction | 1.537 (83/54) / 2.388 (43/18) | Drive train table |
| Fuel tank (incl. reserve) | 18.5 L (E-33) / 19.0 L (others) | Market-dependent |
| Engine oil capacity | 3.0 L (oil change) / 3.5 L (with filter) / 3.7 L (overhaul) | Capacity table |
Electrical and component-mapping depth
Beyond wiring-system pages, the general-information section includes electrical component location maps that call out module/sensor hardware (ECM, fuel pump relay, regulator/rectifier, CKP/ECT/HO2 sensors, injectors, fuse box, side-stand switch, speed sensor, STV actuator). For buyers who care about diagram + locator coverage (not just schematics), that combination is a strong technical-depth indicator.
Drivetrain and chassis boundaries that stay clean
Drivetrain references are separated into their own domains (chain/drivetrain, clutch, transmission), while chassis data is handled with dedicated suspension, wheels/tires, brakes (including ABS), and steering sections. Specs such as transmission type (6-speed constant mesh), shift pattern, and chain standard (RK GB50GSVZ3, 118 links) appear as hard, scannable tables instead of being buried in narrative text.
