Description

THE ULTIMATE SPORTS CROSSOVER

Dynamic sports performance meets long distance capability and comfort. An exhilarating engine, responsive chassis, semi-active suspension and next generation rider aids. Ready for every journey.

The aim was to create a new crossover expression, featuring styling that visually conveys both the potential of its superbike-derived performance and of a capable long-distance tourer that is ready to go. This blends harmoniously with attention to detail that reflects the level of elegance and sophistication that delivers comfort on long rides and makes touring a pleasure wherever the rider wishes to go.

The high performance 999cc four-stroke, liquid-cooled DOHC inline four-cylinder engine that powers the GSX-S1000GX is engineered to perform under all kinds of riding conditions, whether touring for long distances or out for a sporty run. Its smooth, consistent, power throughout its wide power band, makes for an easy and exciting sports crossover riding experience, whilst a comprehensive suite of electronic rider aids offer fine and customisable control for your preferred riding style and riding pleasure at any given time.

Core strength is provided by a frame and swing arm that supports the engines superbike levels of performance. Extended wheel travel in both the front and rear helps smooth out rougher or undulating surfaces, while Dunlop SPORTMAX Roadsport 2 tyres provide sure grip in all conditions. The GX introduces Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES) for the first time, with a variety of settings that automatically adjust on the fly to match the riding conditions of the moment. Other details include an upright riding position and handlebars that contribute to controllability and stability. The chassis and engine combination, allied to the advanced control systems of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) provide an exciting new riding experience.

The GSX-S1000GX is designed to provide maximum comfort for a more relaxing and less tiring touring experience, for both rider and pillion. Attention to detail includes the floating handlebars and rubber footrests that reduce vibration, and a comfortable new seat design.

The GSX-S1000GX is the first Suzuki motorcycle to adopt Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES), which offers a broad range of settings that ably support everything from aggressive sport riding to long-distance touring. Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES) uses Showa EERA® series suspension tuned for the GSX-S1000GX which is an electronic version of the SFF-CA™ inverted telescopic front forks and BFRC-lite® link-type monoshock. It not only uses vehicle and speed information from the IMU and wheel speed sensors, but also from high-precision stroke sensors compactly integrated into both the front and rear suspension. This state-of-the-art electronically controlled suspension not only absorbs road surface irregularities to improve manoeuvrability and comfort, but also achieves both good handling performance at low speeds and reassuring stability at high speeds.

Both the rider and pillion seats are designed to provide maximum comfort. They also feature a sporty and attractive design. The rider seat cushion is 15mm thicker than on the GSX-S1000GT. In addition, its top surface is flatter from side to side than on the GT. This enhances comfort by increasing the area that supports the riders weight from the middle to the rear of the seat, while the seat front is tapered to provide freedom of movement when enjoying a more aggressive, sporty run. The pillion seat is also 10mm thicker than on the GT, and its firmness revised for the GX, and its top surface made 26mm wider.

The GXs front cowl, height-adjustable windscreen and standard-equipment knuckle covers were all carefully developed to provide the level of aerodynamic performance and comfort desired on long rides, while at the same time paying keen attention to achieving attractive styling. Maximized wind protection makes your ride more comfortable by reducing exposure to the cold and elements, reducing fatigue when touring for long distances at speed enabling you to concentrate on enjoying the ride, regardless of weather or road conditions. Attention to detail extends to the front cowl, where a new layered design suppresses the generation of negative air pressure to help prevent head buffeting. In addition, holes placed strategically on the face are effective in reducing front lift. The sides were also widened to help better guide the flow of air away from the area of the abdomen so it doesnt cause the discomfort of your jacket blowing in the wind.

The Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (SIRS) for the GSX-S1000GX applies the latest high-spec technologies in a manner that makes its collection of advanced electronic rider assist systems easy for you to fully enjoy. You choose an integrated riding mode or individual settings to best suit your level of experience, your riding style, and the conditions of the moment. In turn, SIRS frees you to concentrate on riding with greater confidence by making the GX more controllable, more predictable, and less tiring to ride, no matter how far your journey takes you.

SRAS activates automatically when riding on cobblestones or other uneven surfaces, triggering stronger Suzuki Floating Ride Control (SFRC) to help smooth out the ride and adjusting the Electronic Throttle Valve settings to deliver softer, more controllable throttle response.
