GSX-R750
Truly in a Class of Its Own
Suzuki revolutionized the sportbike category in 1985 with the introduction of the original GSX-R750.
The latest GSX-R750 continues Suzuki's tradition of building Supersport bikes powered by strong engines carried in a lightweight and nimble chassis.
On the road or on the track, the GSX-R750 delivers a breathtaking combination of outstanding engine performance, crisp handling, compact and lightweight chassis, and advanced front and rear suspensions.
- Key Features
-
- The GSX-R750's fuel-injected, 750cm³, four-cylinder engine powers a balanced sportbike experience. This engine pulls strong off the bottom like a larger-displacement powerplant while it builds revs like a smaller mill – it's the best of both worlds.
- The Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) lets the rider adjust the engine's power delivery to suit the riding conditions.
- The twin-spar aluminum frame effectively connects the steering head with the swingarm pivot portion of the chassis in a way that balances light weight and strength. The engine is suspended below the frame to keep mass low and the wheelbase short to promote nimble handling.
- The SHOWA Big Piston Forks (BPF) feature effective, accurate and linear damping, superb feedback and consistent performance.
- The single SHOWA remote reservoir rear shock absorber contributes to exceptional handling.
- Twin Brembo radial mount monobloc front brake calipers grasp fully floating stainless steel brake rotors to deliver strong stopping power.
- Three-way adjustable footpegs contribute to providing a comfortable riding position.
- Engine Features
-
- The compact 750cm³, 4-cylinder engine with a race-proven over-square bore/stroke ratio produces remarkably strong high rpm power delivery.
- The energy-efficient engine employs forged pistons, shot-peened connecting rods, chrome-nitride-coated upper compression and oil control rings, and pentagonal ventilation holes to reduce frictional and mechanical losses.
- Camshafts with aggressive valve-lift profiles were developed using proven MotoGP racing engine technology – the first time this method has been applied to a production Suzuki.
- Lightweight titanium alloy valves are controlled by single-coil valve springs to reduce valve-train mass, reducing mechanical losses at high rpm.
- Lightweight and durable forged pistons were designed using the same Finite Element Method (FEM) and fatigue analysis technology used for MotoGP racing engines.
- Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) fuel injection uses eight fine-spray eight-hole injectors for improved fuel atomization, which contributes to more complete combustion.
- An Engine Control Module (ECM) provides state-of-the-art engine management and has enhanced settings to suit the intake and exhaust systems, resulting in better fuel economy and linear throttle response.
- Advanced MotoGP-developed transistorized ignition control programming helps maintain more precise spark timing across the range of engine speed and temperature.
- Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) offers push-button selection of two racing-developed engine control maps to suit road or track conditions and personal tastes.
- 4-into-1 stainless steel exhaust system with a titanium muffler is fitted with a Suzuki Exhaust Tuning (SET) valve that maximizes torque and improves throttle response, especially in the low- to mid-rpm range.
- The close-ratio 6-speed transmission features a taller first-gear ratio and shorter ratios for second, third, fourth, and sixth gear, making it easier for a racer to get a good start while improving straight-line acceleration and power out of corners.
- Race-proven back-torque-limiting clutch contributes to smoother downshifting and corner entry.
- Chassis Features
-
- Lightweight and compact twin-spar aluminum alloy frame is constructed of five cast sections to produce a balance of light weight and strength.
- The frame is mated with a cast aluminum swingarm and multi-piece rear sub-frame that's ready for racetrack use.
- Race-developed, lightweight SHOWA Big Piston Front Forks (BPF) deliver superb feedback and consistent performance.
- Single SHOWA rear shock features externally adjustable rebound and compression damping, along with adjustable ride height.
- Electronically controlled steering damper provides lighter steering at slower speeds and more damping force at racetrack and highway speeds.
- Front brakes with fully floating 310mm discs are grasped by radial-mount, four-piston Brembo monobloc calipers.
- 3-spoke cast aluminum alloy wheels are shod with lightweight, high-grip front and rear tires for sharp handling.
- Three-way adjustable footpegs, adjustable shift lever, and short fuel tank help compose a comfortable riding position that permits the rider movement required for performance riding.
- Compact, lightweight instrument cluster with a built-in lap timer/stopwatch and programmable engine rpm indicators to alert the rider to certain shift points.
- Trim, simple, and lightweight bodywork creates an exciting, aerodynamic styling that truly works well at speed.
- Distinctive multi-reflector headlight with vertically stacked high- and low-beam halogen bulbs is centered between position lights on each side.
- Bright, durable LED taillight, with clear lens.
- The front turn signals are integrated into the rearview mirrors while the rear tail section houses the rear signals.
- The lightweight instruments also include an analog tachometer and LCD readouts that show speed, odometer, dual trip meter, reserve trip meter, clock, coolant temperature/oil pressure, SDMS setting, and gear position indicators.
- Attention to rider comfort and confidence includes a carefully shaped seat with a high-grip cover.
- The wheel rims have pin stripes punctuated by "R" logos that highlight the bike's identity.
- Additional Features
-
- Optional single seat cowling can replace the passenger seat for an even more aggressive look or for use on solo rides or track days.
- A variety of Genuine Suzuki Accessories for GSX-R owners are available, including a large selection of Suzuki logo apparel.
