25 years of Supersports know-how. A perfect blend of track engineering and road ready design. A feeling of raw, blood pumping power that comes with every twist of the throttle. the latest GSX-R1000 nails it once again.
The all new chassis with shorter wheelbase, allows you to maintain speed when taking on corners, while a longer swingarm delivers greater traction when powering out of them. A slipper clutch provides an even smoother downshift and greater stability when approaching trickier bends. Ride quality is improved thanks to big piston forks, the first 1000cc production bike to be fitted with them. Three separate performance settings give instant control over the power delivery to suit the specific road types and conditions, while monoblock front brake calipers increase overall stopping power. In a word, Legendary
