2023 Suzuki GSX-R1000
2023 Suzuki GSX-R1000
Suzuki revolutionized the sportbike category with the introduction of the original GSX-R750 in 1985, and then created another milestone in 2001 with the introduction of the GSX-R1000. Using the lithe chassis of the GSX-R750 and a 988cc inline four-cylinder engine design that Suzuki is renowned for, liter-class Superbike performance became available to riders everywhere.
A proud member of the GSX-R family of ultra-high-performance motorcycles, the 2023 GSX-R1000's versatile engine provides class-leading power that is delivered smoothly and controllably across a broad rpm range. Like the original GSX-R1000, the 2023's compact chassis delivers nimble handling with excellent suspension feel and braking control, ready to conquer a racetrack or cruise a country road. Advanced electronic rider aids such as traction control and a bi-directional quick shifter enhance the riding experience while the distinctive, aerodynamic GSX-R bodywork slices through the wind.
Equipped with Showa's Big-piston Fork plus Brembo T-drive rotors and Monobloc brake calipers the GSX-R1000 is ready for a ride through the twisties on the street or though chicanes on a track day. A new Pearl Brilliant White and Metallic Matte Stellar Blue paint scheme with contrasting blue graphics joins a dark, stealthy Metallic Matte Black No. 2 and Glass Sparkle Black body treatment that uses a slash of yellow to further define the GSX-R's race-ready appearance.
And that is the point, as each GSX-R1000 is poised to Own the Racetrack, imagine what they can accomplish on the street.
Features may include:
ENGINE
The compact, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 999.8cc, inline-four cylinder engine is designed with a high level of top-end performance plus strong low- to mid-range power.
TRANSMISSION
The GSX-R1000 includes the Suzuki Bi-Directional Quick Shift System which was previously available only on the GSX-R1000R model. This system allows for clutchless upshifts and downshifts when the motorcycle is used in competition.
ADVANCED ELECTRONICS
A powerful, 32-bit dual processor Engine Control Module (ECM) blends Suzuki's vast street-going EFI knowledge with the intelligence from Suzuki's race-winning MotoGP program. GSX-R1000 riders will get sportbike performance without peer while simultaneously receiving polished street manners.
CHASSIS
Using lessons learning from Suzuki MotoGP chassis development, the engine angle of the GSX-R1000 was rotated backward six degrees. This had the joint effect of reducing the distance of the fork to the center of the chassis by 20 mm and increasing the swingarm length by 40 mm. This increases chassis stability and improves aerodynamics.
