Suzuki started with a goal to reclaim the GSX-R1000’s The King of Sportbikes crown.From there, the fundamental capabilities that make a great sportbike were distilled down to three words: run, stop, and turn – making the new GSX-R1000R run better, turn better, and stop better than any other sportbike.The GSX-R’s compact and lightweight engine provides class-leading power that is delivered smoothly and controllably across a broad rpm range. This versatile engine is equally suited for driving hard out of a racetrack corner or accelerating effortlessly onto a public highway.This incredible engine contributes to the GSX-R1000R’s compact chassis that delivers nimble handling with excellent front-end feel and braking, as useful for trail-braking on the racetrack as for rolling into tight corners on a country road. Advanced electronic rider aids that aren’t too complicated to use enhance the experience rather than control it. The bodywork’s aerodynamics reduce drag at top speed on the racetrack and improve rider comfort on brisk street rides.
