The Suzuki GSX-8R an exciting fusion of sportbike appeal, performance, and riding pleasure that will appeal to a wide range of riders with varying levels of experience. Riding upon on the engineering advances of the GSX-8S, the agile GSX-8R is designed to satisfy, whether riding around town or heading out for a sporty run through winding mountain roads on the weekend.
At the core is Suzuki’s new-generation parallel-twin 776cc DOHC engine with a responsive chassis built around it, creating a stunning sportbike package. Every aspect of the 8R’s design is geared toward delivering a satisfying experience to riders who desire more power than a 650cc class sportbike can deliver, who aspire to ride a bike with the sharp styling of an elegant sportbike, and who desire a satisfying ride that is reassuring, reliable, and ready for action.
