The Suzuki GSX-S1000GX is a model that the brand describes as a ‘Supreme Sports Crossover’ and has been delighting fans of its segment, combining the best of both sports and touring motorcycle worlds.
With a 999cc engine, four inline cylinders, and dual overhead camshafts, the GSX-S1000GX offers superbike-worthy performance while maintaining the comfort necessary for long journeys. Suzuki claims that this engine has been optimized to provide a smooth and broad torque curve throughout the rev range, ensuring a pleasant riding experience both in the city and on the highway.
One of the most notable innovations is Suzuki’s Advanced Electronic Suspension System (SAES), a first for the brand. This system offers a wide range of settings that automatically adapt to riding conditions, whether for sportier riding or a more relaxed cruise. With 150mm of suspension travel both front and rear, the bike promises to effectively absorb road irregularities, even on more demanding surfaces like cobblestones.
Technology is a strong point of the GSX-S1000GX. Suzuki’s Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) includes a series of advanced rider assistance features, such as the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector Alpha, Smart Traction Control, and Active Damping Control, among others.
In terms of design, Suzuki has opted for an aesthetic that combines aggressive supersport elements with a higher, more upright riding position typical of touring motorcycles. Details such as the hexagonal LED headlights and LED taillights with clear lenses give the package a modern and premium look.
Comfort has not been forgotten, with Suzuki implementing various measures to reduce fatigue on long trips. These include floating handlebars, rubber-coated footpegs, and a redesigned seat for both rider and passenger.
The GSX-S1000GX is equipped with 17-inch lightweight alloy wheels, Dunlop SPORTMAX Roadsport 2 tires, and a Brembo braking system with 310mm twin floating discs at the front.
With a 19-liter fuel tank, the new Suzuki promises generous range, ideal for long journeys. The bike also comes standard with a rear carrier for additional luggage.
