Suzuki GSX-8R Finance Available

Description

A new era for sportsbikes, where superbike looks combine with real-world performance and usability. A punchy engine packed with torque, housed in an agile, responsive chassis, with performance enhanced by a sophisticated suite of electronics for an unrivalled experience on the road or track.

A new engine for a new era of sports bikes, the new GSX-8R uses Suzuki’s new parallel twin engine, which delivers torque in abundance across the rev range, provides an exciting character and feeling thanks to its 270-degree crankshaft design, and enables a slim chassis design thanks to its compact layout.

Designed as to pair perfectly with the parallel twin engine platform and made from steel tube sections with optimised rigidity the frame is engineered to contribute to agile handling, to provide excellent straight line stability and to perform equally in urban environments or on more sporty rides or twistier roads.

Radially-mounted front brake callipers biting 310mm floating discs provide strong stopping power and predictable braking performance.

Showa SFF-BP (Separate Function Fork - Big Piston) inverted front forks allows for the elimination of the cartridge on one side and makes it possible to increase the size of the piston. The structure not only reduces weight, but also features stable damping characteristics. The link-type mono-shock at the rear, with preload adjuster, is set up to contribute to straight-line stability and a s smooth, controllable ride.

The GSX-8R uses forged aluminium, separate handlebars. The use of aluminium not only minimises weight, but the pressure applied in the forging process also contributes to creating highly rigid components. The lower, more forward placement of the handlebars provides a sportier riding position, placing more of the riders weight over the front wheel.

The windscreen and the cowl for the GSX-8R was developed through extensive wind tunnel testing to aid aerodynamic performance and help reduce fatigue on long rides by cutting wind noise and preventing buffeting. The cowl-mounted mirrors are designed and tested to enhance aerodynamic performance and wind protection. With a sharp design the compliment sporty styling.

The Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) is a collection of advanced electronic rider assist systems, which allow the rider to choose the settings for each system to best suit their preference or to suit the conditions. SIRS helps enhance an already exciting riding experience that inspires confidence and frees riders to concentrate on enjoying the ride.

The GSX-8R uses a 5-inch colour TFT display. Clearly legible high-quality information displays keep you fully aware of all the Bikes systems and settings, and supply vital real-time operating status information. The tachometer doubles up as a programmable rpm indicator light that blinks when the engine reaches a pre-set speed, and adds a function that lets you display large pop-up alerts and reminder. Manual or automatic switching settings for the day (white) and night (black) display modes let you maximise visibility at any hour and in any riding situation.
