2023 Suzuki GSX-S1000

Born of race-winning, track-proven DNA and raised on the street, the honed physique of the new GSX-S1000 morphs it into an even tighter and more striking package that is ready to turn heads and own the streets. It’s all about commanding performance, confidence-inspiring controllability, rider friendliness, and looks that just can’t be beat. Who knew naked aggression could be so beautiful?

• SUZUKI PROTECTION PLAN

Suzuki Protection Plan is a comprehensive plan that covers all major components, parts and electrical/computer systems on your Suzuki Motorcycle or ATV. Only normal wear or maintenance items are not covered. We’ve built Suzuki Protection Plan around coverage, not exclusions.

• RAZOR SHARP AND READY TO STRIKE

Minimalist cowling with sharp lines surrounds stacked hexagonal LED headlights to form the compact face of a radical new design. These sharp lines continue their upward trajectory across the contrasting bulk of a massive fuel tank, heightening the sense of well-sculpted athleticism and muscular strength. It’s the aggressive stance of a thoroughbred street fighter that exudes performance potential, while also reflecting an attention to detail focused on delivering a superlative riding experience.

• REFINED PERFORMANCE

Every aspect of performance has been refined. Overall power output is increased and is stronger through the low- to mid-range engine speeds most commonly used in daily riding. A broader, smoother torque curve featuring greater cumulative torque production consistently delivers abundant power throughout the engine’s operating range and particularly shines in the mid- to high rpm range. And all this is achieved while satisfying Euro 5 emissions standards.

• ACHIEVE BETTER BALANCE OF PERFORMANCE

Revised exhaust and intake cam profiles decrease the amount of lift and reduce valve overlap to achieve a better overall balance of performance and controllability across a broad range of engine speeds, while also contributing to improved emissions performance.

Changes to the internal structure of the new air cleaner box help improve power output characteristics. A change to the bore size of the new electronic throttle bodies helps achieve a better balance between idling throttle response and power output characteristics.

• PERFORMANCE-TUNED SUSPENSION

The 43mm KYB inverted front forks give a ride that is smooth and sporty. They feature 120mm of stroke and fully adjustable damping, rebound, compression and spring preload settings.

The link-type rear suspension with adjustable rebound damping and spring preload settings reacts efficiently to varying road surfaces to maintain an agile and stable feel while helping offer up to 130mm of rear-wheel travel.

The suspension settings were thoroughly tested and tuned to best match changes to the internal structure of the tires and realize nimbler handling and improved steering into corners.
