The compact 999cc liquid-cooled engine with Suzuki's Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection system has been developed to offer excellent power and throttle response. Three engine power settings are available at the flick of a handle-bar mounted switch, each with its own engine map depending on road or track conditions.
The adjustable back-torque limiting clutch makes for smoother downshifts while the high-volume titanium/ stainless steel Suzuki Advanced Exhaust Systems (SAES) features an under-body chamber and two low-slung mufflers for increased internal volume and lower centre of gravity. Also contributing to the advanced aerodynamics is the aggressively style bodywork, slicing the air with the smallest frontal area possible.
The cast-aluminium-alloy frame is built for superb rigidity and balance while the front forks and rear shock absorber both have adjustable high/low-speed compression damping, adjustable rebound damping and spring preload. The electronically controlled steering damper means less damping force for lighter steering at slow speeds and more damping force at higher speeds. 3-way adjustable footpegs improve rider comfort while the radial-mount 4-piston calipers and radial master cylinder provide superb bike-lever feel.
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. |

Features
» Compact 999cc 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine offers excellent power and throttle response, along with reduced emissions.
» Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) downdraft digital fuel injection brings seamless, linear throttle response and enhanced low-rpm torque.
» Fuel injectors are more compact and each has 12 smaller holes (instead of 4 larger holes) to produce a finer spray for better fuel atomization.
» Choice of three engine-management-system performance settings each with its own engine map.
» A handlebar-mounted switch allows instantaneous selection between the three maps developed from racebike maps for rainy, mixed or dry track conditions.
» Iridium-electrode spark plugs enhance combustion and provide a long service life.
» Adjustable, back-torque-limiting clutch contributes to smoother downshifts.
» Self-adjusting hydraulic clutch actuation system minimizes change in clutch feel over the course of a long race.
» Large, trapezoidal-shape radiator, working with a large oil pump and efficient oil cooler.
» High-volume titanium/stainless steel Suzuki Advanced Exhaust System (SAES) features an under-body chamber and two low-slung mufflers.
» The exhaust layout helps increase internal volume, lowers the center of gravity, centralizes the mass and enhances aerodynamics.
» Aerodynamic bodywork enhances aggressive style while maintaining small front area.
» Cast aluminum-alloy frame built for superb rigidity balance to deliver precise feel.
» Optional kit parts adjust swing-arm pivot height for racing set-up.
» Front forks and rear shock absorber both have adjustable high/low-speed compression damping, and fully adjustable rebound damping and spring preload.
» Electronically controlled steering damper: less damping force for lighter steering at slower speeds and more damping force at higher speeds.
» 3-way-adjustable footpegs (brake pedal/master cylinder and shift lever move with the pegs).
