New 2023 Suzuki GSX-R1000R

The 2023 GSX-R1000 arrives in a new Pearl Brilliant White and Metallic Matte Stellar Blue paint scheme with blue wheels or a new Metallic Matte Black No. 2 and Glass Sparkle Black scheme with yellow graphics on the fairing and black wheels. The 999cc, DOHC, inline-four engine produces great top-end power with a strong low- to mid-range pull thanks to the exclusive Suzuki Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system and the highly efficient 4-2-1 exhaust with a revised muffler and heat shield. Advanced electronics include the Suzuki Bi-Directional Quick Shift System as standard equipment, an Inertia Measurement Unit, S-DMS adjustable engine output, and Traction Control to increase track and street performance. Twin-spar aluminum frame is lighter and more compact than the prior-generation GSX-R1000 for nimble handling with a high level of grip when cornering. Advanced Showa suspension combines with ABS-equipped Brembo T-drive front brake rotors and four-piston calipers for extraordinary handling and stopping performance. Aerodynamic fairing houses a bright LED headlight and Suzuki Ram Air Direct ducts that feed the engine to boost top end power. The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider’s throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip.

2023 GSX-R1000Overview
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.
