The 2025 GSX-R1000’s versatile engine provides class-leading power delivered smoothly and controllably across a broad rpm range. Like the original 2001 GSX-R1000, the 2025’s compact chassis delivers nimble handling with excellent suspension feel and braking control, ready to conquer a racetrack or cruise a country road. Advanced electronic rider aids such as traction control and a bi-directional quick shifter enhance the riding experience while the distinctive, aerodynamic GSX-R bodywork slices through the wind. Equipped with a Showa Big-piston Fork plus Brembo T-drive rotors and Monobloc brake calipers the GSX-R1000 is ready for a ride through the twisties, on the street or through chicanes on a track day. And that is the point, as the GSX-R1000 is poised to Own the Racetrack, imagine how it performs on the street. Key Features • The 2025 GSX-R1000 aerodynamic bodywork is coated in a new Candy Daring Red and Glass Sparkle Black with red wheels, or a Mechanical Matte Sword Silver with new, bright blue graphics on the fairing and on the black wheels. • Behind the front fairing’s stacked LED headlights and Suzuki Ram Air Direct ducts is a reasonable sport riding position created from a carefully crafted relationship between the clip-ons, footrests, and a low seat height of just 32.48 inches (825 mm). • The compact 999cc, DOHC, inline-four engine produces great top-end power with a strong low- to mid-range pull thanks to the exclusive Suzuki Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system and the highly efficient 4-2-1 stainless-steel exhaust system. • The Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) multi-plate, wet clutch functions like a slipper clutch during downshifts while increasing plate pressure during acceleration. The standard Bi-directional Quick Shift System enables smooth, clutchless upshifts and downshifts of the cassette-style, six-speed transmission. • Light and compact, the twin-spar aluminum and arched swingarm hold a Showa Big Piston fork and rear suspension that deliver extraordinary handling while the pitch-sensitive, ABS** system monitors the Brembo four-piston, front brake calipers. • An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) provides six-direction, three-axis, motion, and position information to the Engine Control Module (ECM) so instantaneous electronic adjustments are made to the Traction Control* and the pitch-sensitive Motion Track Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)** . • Both the large LCD multifunction instrument panel and the lightning-fast, 32-bit dual processor ECM blend race-winning MotoGP intelligence with Suzuki’s vast street-going EFI knowledge so riders will get sportbike performance without peer while simultaneously receiving polished street manners. Features and Benefits • The compact, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 999.8cc, inline-four-cylinder engine is designed with a prominent level of top-end performance plus strong low- to mid-range power. • The crankshaft retains Suzuki’s Even Firing Order Engine legacy. Uneven firing order engines used in other motorcycles vibrate more, while the GSX-R1000 makes good, smooth, and reliable power at all engine speeds while emitting a high-performance exhaust note. • The short-stroke engine has a 76.0mm bore versus a 55.1mm stroke yet is narrower than the prior-generation GSX-R1000 thanks to effective design. • The exclusive Suzuki Racing Variable Valve Timing System (SR-VVT) uses a centrifugal actuated mechanism on the intake camshaft sprocket, increasing high engine rpm power without losing low- to mid-range power. • The Suzuki Racing Finger Follower valve train weighs less than a tappet-style valve train reducing friction and increasing valve response at higher engine speeds. • Titanium valves with two 31.5mm intake, and two 24mm exhaust valves are used for each cylinder. The lighter valves respond well to the finger followers’ arms and permit a 14,500 rpm redline helping produce remarkably high peak horsepower. • Aluminum pistons each 76.0
