The 2024 Suzuki GSX-8R elevates the brand’s GSX-8S with full fairing flair and dynamic design.
Suzuki unveils the 2024 GSX-8R, promising an exhilarating fusion of sporty aesthetics and cutting-edge performance. The spotlight is on the GSX-8R’s 776cc parallel-twin engine using a 270-degree firing order, a powerhouse that anchors a frame designed for the ideal rider experience.
The GSX-8R stands shoulder to shoulder with its sibling, the GSX-8S, showcasing distinctive Suzuki sportbike allure with a sleek full fairing sculpted by artistic precision and wind tunnel refinement. The GSX-8R doesn’t just look the part; it delivers on the road. SHOWA’s adjustable SFF-BP front forks and matching rear shocks paired with ABS-equipped NISSIN radial-mounted 4-piston calipers and Dunlop’s RoadSport 2 radial tires provide agile and precise handling,
Suzuki’s commitment to rider experience shines through with the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.). S.I.R.S. brings advanced electronic features like the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector, Traction Control System, and Bi-directional Quick Shift System. Combined with Ride-by-Wire Electronic Throttle and Suzuki Easy Start, these features create a seamless and exciting ride. The 5-inch TFT instrument panel informs riders with a wealth of information, making the GSX-8R a standout in its class.
The GSX-8R doesn’t disappoint in terms of style. It offers a modern take on Suzuki’s sportbike heritage, embracing the “Visual Structure” concept and featuring functional parts that pay homage to the iconic GSX-R series design. The bike comes in three bold color choices. The rider is placed in a sporty position thanks to well-placed foot pegs, a well-padded seat, and forged aluminum separate handlebars. The sleek full fairing and wind tunnel-developed windscreen provide excellent wind protection and minimize wind sounds and buffeting.
The 2024 Suzuki GSX-8R has an MSRP of $9,439 and will be available early 2024 in Metallic Triton Blue, Pearl Ignite Yellow, and Metallic Matte Sword Silver with red wheels.
