Firman F1000 Configuration Options

Engines

2009 Suzuki GSXR-1000, 191 bhp, standard specification ECU with custom engine wiring harness.
 
The 2009 Suzuki GSXR-1000 engine is an all new design that is smaller and lighter than previous models, while increasing both horsepower and compression.
 
The compression ratio has been increased from 12.5.1 to 12.8:1. The engine employs several design changes to improve reliability including the use of enlarged titanium valves, forged pistons, shot-peened conrods and the Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM)-plated cylinders which are integrated into the crankcase, reducing friction and improving heat transfer, durability and ring seal.
 
In addition to the 2009 GSXR-1000 Suzuki other engine options are available upon request.
