<p>Launched in the spring of 2009, the Gladius 650 replaced the hugely popular SV650, going on to score highly with both press and customers. Featuring a trellis-styled steel frame, curved bodywork and ancillaries along with bold colour options, the Gladius brought unique style to the Japanese naked middleweight segment.</p>
<p>But it&#8217;s more than just aesthetics that have made the Gladius an instant hit. With a chassis and bodywork designed to be slender, a low seat-height of just 785mm and strong attention to detail, the Gladius 650 is one entry-level machine that delivers both form and function.</p>

<p>Built For Fun, Pure and Simple.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a good reason so many road bikes in the &#8217;50s and &#8217;60s were big single-cylinder machines: they&#8217;re incredibly fun to ride! The Boulevard S40 adds a shot of advanced Suzuki technology to this timeless design to create a bike that combines exciting performance with rock-solid reliability. One of the S40&#8217;s major attractions is its lightweight responsiveness. Weighing just 352 pounds, it&#8217;s great for cruising down the boulevard or getting outside the city limits. Wherever you ride, one twist of the throttle rewards you with a blast of low-end and mid-range torque. And when you&#8217;re up to cruising speed, you&#8217;ll really appreciate the engine&#8217;s smooth performance. The Boulevard S40 for 2010 &#8211; designed for you to enjoy the simple pleasure and pure excitement of motorcycling.</p>

<p>The Marauder is also styled so you&#8217;ll fit right in with your riding buddies.      It has classic Suzuki styling — long, low and lean — and includes      a variety of features from a buttoned-down seat to flashy spoked wheels.</p>

<p><b>Engine Features</b><br />
Lightweight 398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine produces strong, tractable low-rpm power<br />
Compact 4-valve cylinder head with 36mm intake valves, 29mm exhaust valves, narrow 28-degree included valve angle and shim-under-bucket valve adjustment system<br />
SCEM-plated cylinder (nickel-silicon-phosphorous) is lighter and more durable than an iron liner with excellent heat transfer properties<br />
Forged aluminum piston is 10 percent lighter than a cast piston and receives additional oil-cooling to the piston crown through a crankcase oil jet<br />
Compact 5-speed transmission utilizes a cable-operated clutch with separate outer cover for simplified clutch maintenance<br />
Additional weight savings with magnesium valve cover, clutch cover, and magneto cover<br />
Smooth throttle response with a Mikuni™ BSR36 CV-type carburetor fed by 6-liter airbox. The left side cover has quick-release fasteners for easy access to the air filter<br />
Electric start with lightweight starter motor and a compact 6.5 amp maintenance-free battery<br />
Automatic decompression system for quick/easy engine starts<br />
Thermostatically controlled cooling fan mounted to the left radiator helps maintain consistent operating temperature in traffic<br />
<b>Chassis Features</b><br />
Renthal tapered aluminum handlebar for reduced vibration and an aggressive look<br />
Compact digital instrument cluster with speedometer, odometer, twin-trip meters with addition/subtraction capability, clock, timer and stopwatch functions<br />
Long travel, Showa-brand inverted front fork derived from RM250 &#8211; features adjustable compression/rebound damping and alumite coating on inner tube surfaces for smooth action<br />
A fully adjustable rear shock absorber with high/low speed compression damping adjuster and aluminum swingarm for precise rear wheel control<br />
Strong braking performance supplied by a front disc brake with a large 300mm floating-type rotor and dual-piston caliper, plus 240mm rear disc brake with single-piston caliper<br />
Black-painted RK Excel 17&#8243; aluminum rims and radial tires: 120/70-R17 front, 140/70- R17 rear<br />
New front and rear axle sliders<br />

Narrow profile with smooth transitions between the tank, seat and bodywork<br />
Chrome-moly steel frame tuned for Supermoto style riding is torsionally strong with minimal weight. The backbone tube, front down tube, and steering head gussets form the dry-sump engine oil tank<br />

Smooth throttle response with a Mikuni™ BSR36 CV-type carburetor fed by 6-liter airbox. The left side cover has quick-release fasteners for easy access to the air filter<br />
Thermostatically controlled cooling fan mounted to the left radiator helps maintain consistent operating temperature in traffic<br />
398cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, dry-sump engine produces strong low-rpm power<br />

Automatic decompression system for quick/easy engine starts<br />
SCEM-plated cylinder (nickel-silicon-phosphorous) is lighter and more durable than an iron liner with excellent heat transfer properties<br />
Forged aluminum piston is 10 percent lighter than a cast piston and receives additional oil-cooling to the piston crown through a crankcase oil jet<br />
Compact 5-speed transmission utilizes a cable-operated clutch with separate outer cover for simplified clutch maintenance<br />
