Own the racetrack.Own the racetrack. Suzuki GSX-R1000 is ready to own the racetrack or deliver an exhilarating ride on the road. The latest GSX-R1000 features significant upgrades across the board, including a completely re-designed engine and chassis, with major suspension, brake and bodywork developments. The 999cc, four-cylinder, liquid-cooled, DOHC engine, featuring the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel-injection system, is lighter and shorter and delivers improved performance and throttle response throughout the entire rpm range, while also reducing emissions.

The latest GSX-R1000 features significant upgrades across the board, including a completely re-designed engine and chassis, with major suspension, brake and bodywork developments.

The 999cc, four-cylinder, liquid-cooled, DOHC engine, featuring the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel-injection system, is lighter and shorter and delivers improved performance and throttle response throughout the entire rpm range, while also reducing emissions.

Developed on the racetrack, the new Suzuki is fitted with two large-volume, MotoGP-inspired titanium mufflers and a large and efficient trapezoidal-shaped radiator to reduce drag.

With a new layout, ratios in the six-speed transmission have been carefully selected for optimum racetrack performance, while the GSX-R1000 is also fitted with a revised back-torque-limiting clutch offering improved lever feel and feedback.

The compact engine enabled engineers to create an all-new, more compact chassis, with a new twin-spar cradle frame, 10mm-shorter wheelbase and 33mm-longer swingarm, improving handling and acceleration on the racetrack.

Co-developed by Suzuki and Showa engineers and proven in the gruelling Suzuka 8 Hour, the GSX-R1000 features a revolutionary Big Piston Frontfork (BPF) front suspension system.

If it sounds good on paper, the GSX-R1000 feels even better on the road or track.

Ride it yourself and experience the sheer performance of the world's most successful open-class racing machine.



Key Features:

Engine - 999cc GSX-R1000 engine is a clean sheet design built to maximize combustion efficiency with more torque and power across the rpm range and enhanced throttle response and reduced exhaust emissions.

Fuel injection System - A powerful microprocessor in the ECM runs the advanced engine management system, starting with the latest versions of the SDTV downdraft double-barrel fuel injection system first introduced on the GSX-R1000.

Frame - The compact twin spar frame welded together using five cast aluminum alloy sections including a steering head section, two main-spar/swingarm pivot plate sections and cross braces above and below the swingarm.

Steering Damper - Electronically controlled steering damper uses the ECM to monitor motorcycle speed and adjust damping force as needed.

Adjustable Footpegs - Footpegs remain three way adjustable in 14mm in a horizontal and vertical range.

Brake Caliper - Front brake calipers are more rigid despite each being 205 grams lighter than conventional bolt together calipers, reducing flex and improving feedback.

Showa Forks - Showa BPF (Big Piston Front) 43mm fork design eliminates the internal cartridge assembly inserted into each fork leg and instead uses a single 39.6mm upper piston riding against the inside wall of the inner fork tube.

The instrument cluster is centered around an analog tachometer framed by an elegant silver ring with an adjacent digital LCD speedometer.

The LED combination taillight and brake light is built into the rear of the tailsection, featuring a red, mirror lens, covering LED's.

Swingarm - The aluminum alloy swingarm is constructed using just three castings and is arched to make room for the dual titanium mufflers to be tucked in tightly on each side.

The combustion chamber shape accommodates larger intake and exhaust valves. Intake valve size is 31mm and exhaust valve size is 25mm.

Unique Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) system allow the rider to select one of three fuel injection and ignition system
maps, adjusting power delivery to suit personal preference.
