2024 Suzuki GSX-8R

The Suzuki GSX-8R introduces an exciting new expression of sportbike appeal, performance, and riding pleasure. Controllable, agile, and designed to satisfy, whether riding around town or heading out for a sporty run through winding mountain roads on the weekend, the GSX-8R is destined to appeal to customers across a wide range of ages and levels of experience.

The GSX-8R joins the GSX-S series alongside its sibling GSX-8S, featuring distinctively Suzuki sportbike looks that excite the rider in anticipation of sport-oriented performance and optimal comfort.

Features may include:

• KEY

The GSX-8R is an exciting new Suzuki sportbike with a full fairing styled by the artist’s pen and refined by the wind tunnel. Propelled by Suzuki’s new-generation 776cc parallel-twin engine, the GSX-8R is fitted with SHOWA’s SFF-BP fork and matching shock for agile and sure handling. Superb ergonomics and a full suite of electronic rider aids place the GSX-8R at the pinnacle of the mid-size sportbike category.

GSX-8R riders will enjoy exceptional ergonomics that other mid-size sportbikes can’t match. Well-placed foot pegs, a well-padded seat, and forged aluminum separate handlebars place the rider in a sporty riding position. That mild, forward-leaning position is shielded from wind sounds and buffeting by the sleek fairing and wind tunnel-developed windscreen.

• ENGINE

The GSX-8R’s new-generation 776cc parallel-twin DOHC engine delivers a superb balance of smooth controllable torque-rich power from low RPM and freely revs up to its peak power output.

• TRANSMISSION & DRIVELINE

The six-speed transmission features gear ratios that deliver exciting acceleration, whether shifting normally or when using the standard-equipment Bi-directional Quick Shift system to shift without clutch operation.

The GSX-8R’s precise shift linkage helps the rider easily and quickly select the ideal gear for the riding conditions.

• CHASSIS

Designed around the compact parallel-twin engine and constructed with rugged steel pipe, the GSX-8R’s backbone style frame was developed to provide excellent straight-line stability, to contribute to nimble handling, and to perform well in the city, on twisty roads, and at highway speeds.

• Styling

The design goal of the GSX-8R was to create a modern interpretation of sportbike styling compelling enough to set a trend for an exciting new generation of motorcycles ready to carry the Suzuki brand into the future.

Using a “Visual Structure” styling concept, the designers exposed the GSX-8R’s functional parts and painted them to focus on the visceral appeal of select structural elements and highlighting the mechanical beauty of the motorcycle.

• Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.)

The advanced electronic systems of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) let GSX-8R riders optimize performance characteristics to best suit their riding style, level of experience, and riding conditions. This helps make the GSX-8R sportbike more predictable, and enjoyable on a spirited ride or commuting, and it always adds up to a more exciting, confident, and fun riding experience.

• Additional

A variety of Genuine Suzuki Accessories are available for the GSX-8R, such as a solo seat cowl, smoked windscreen, billet clutch and brake levers, fuel tank and engine cover protectors, clip-on tank bags, plus a selection of Suzuki logo apparel.
