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.
The six-speed transmission features gear ratios that deliver exciting acceleration, whether shifting normally or when using the standard-equipment Bi-directional Quick Shift System, enabling the rider to shift without clutch operation. The transmission’s output is managed by the Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS). This system works like a slipper clutch by allowing a small amount of clutch slip for smoother downshifts. The SCAS also works as an assist clutch, increasing plate pressure under acceleration, but always helping keep the clutch lever’s pull light and precise. Riding on durable steel sprockets, a strong O-ring style drive chain contains lubrication pre-packed between the pins and rollers for quiet, reliable operation.
Dual front brakes with 310mm diameter discs and radially mounted NISSIN® four-piston calipers help provide strong and consistent stopping power. The Showa® SFF-BP (Separate Function Fork – Big Piston) inverted fork has 41mm inner tubes with 5.1 inches (130 mm) of smooth travel helping deliver a comfortable and controlled ride. The link-type rear suspension with a Showa® mono-shock is tuned for superb straight-line performance and corning agility, even when carrying a passenger. Matched to the GSX-8R’s chassis geometry and suspension is a uniquely shaped aluminum swingarm that enhances vertical, lateral, and torsional rigidity aiding straight-line andcornering performance.
The GSX-8R instrument panel uses a full-color, five-inch TFT LCD screen. This high-quality instrument panel is set into the inner fairing above the separate handlebars, for good visibility and protection from road debris. S-DMS provides the rider with a choice of three different engine power output modes. Working in concert with the Traction Control System*, S-DMS permits peak power in each mode while changing the nature of the power delivery. The electronic throttle system uses the capability of the GSX-8R’s 32-bit, dual-processor ECM, and CAN-bus wire harness to convert throttle grip movement and sensor input into instantaneous and precise throttle plate movement in the two 42mm throttle bodies. The GSX-8R is equipped with a smooth Bi-directional Quick Shift System, The Suzuki Easy Start System, and The Low RPM Assist System.
New to the 2025 GSX-8R is a Metallic Matte Black No. 2 (YKV) paint scheme that is sure to be a popular choice. The silver subframe and controls contrast well with the black wheels and bodywork, projecting a serious performance attitude. Suzuki designed the GSX-8R to be a modern interpretation of sportbike styling that is compelling enough to set a trend for an exciting new generation of motorcycles ready to carry the Suzuki brand into the future. The GSX-8R’s front fairing functionally directs the flow of air from the nose of the cowling and then out the sides. This helps reduces turbulence and contributes to a smoother riding experience. Styling details extend to the engine as the clutch cover and magneto cover have dark-gray finishes that complement the GSX-8R’s body colors, while the SUZUKI name on the cover is in a contrasting, machined silver to bring attention to this modern engine.
