| The Suzuki GSXR 1000 is a super sports motorcycle, introduced in 1986, available in blue, black, white, silver, gray and red color options. The fuel tank, which is short and narrow, has a capacity of about 18 liter (4.8 gallons). The distance from seat to handlebars is less making the reach easier. It has low foot pegs and a lowdown seat height - all intended for riders’ comfort and mobility. The instrument cluster features include an analog tachometer with rpm indicator, digital speedometer, and new gear indicator. There is also an LCD odometer-trip meter, coolant temperature gauge, and clock and EFI diagnostics. The engine is 998.6cc and has features for increased power, torque and acceleration, and reduction of friction. Suzuki Exhaust Tuning System, TM (SET), regulates exhaust pressure waves to suit running conditions and maintain optimum engine torque.
The Suzuki GSXR 1000 has an ECM-controlled PAIR (Pulsed-AIR) system operation that is based on throttle position and engine rpm to reduce the emission of pollutant gases. The aluminum wheels features a thin spoke design. The bridgestone radial tires are mounted on the wheels with optimized wall thickness. It has a 55/65W headlight and LED taillight. The frame design concentrates the engine mass more towards the centre. There is a cross mounted steering damper and a DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coated stanchion to reduce friction. There is an adjustable piggy-back shock absorber with linear rate linkage system for a better suspension response. The electronic fuel injection system features the Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve System TM (SDTV) which preserves optimum air velocity in the intake tract.
The Suzuki GSXR 1000 has a compact double-barrel body design with large 52mm bores for improved power, plus a narrow pitch between outer and inner bores. The bodywork of the bike is such that it provides more room for the rider's knees. |
