Big Block – High Performance Engine Suzuki’s DF150SS is based on an inline four-cylinder DOHC powerhead with a 174.9 cu.in. (2,867cm3) displacement–one of the largest in the four-stroke, fourcylinder category. While the added displacement contributes greatly to exceptional acceleration and velocity, it doesn’t mean that this engine is comparatively larger or heavier in size. To the contrary, Suzuki’s engineers have targeted this big block motor to be one of the lightest four-strokes in the class. Taking advantage of the advances Suzuki engineers have made in four-stroke engine performance, the...

DF250SS/150SS/115SS PRODUCT INFORMATION Multi-Stage Induction (MSI) High Output Alternators The DF150SS incorporates a multi-stage induction system to enhance engine performance by changing the length of intake manifold pipes according to engine speed. The system utilizes two intake manifold pipes per cylinder, one for operating at low engine speed and another for operating at high. At lower rpm, air enters the combustion chamber through the longer manifold pipe, which is designed to deliver an optimum volume of fresh air into the chamber to improve combustion and boost low-end torque. The DF150SS...
