Suzuki GSX-8R Launch in India - New Sportbike Standard

04 October 2024

Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd. (SMIPL), the Indian subsidiary of Suzuki Motor Corporation, Japan, has unveiled the highly anticipated Suzuki GSX-8R, marking a significant milestone in the company's big bike segment. This new sportbike combines advanced technology, exceptional rideability, and a sleek design to deliver a top-tier riding experience.

Designed as 'The New Standard of Sport,' the GSX-8R offers a perfect blend of real-world performance, rider-friendly features, and cutting-edge styling, making it the ideal choice for both seasoned riders and newcomers.

Powerful Performance and Advanced Features

The Suzuki GSX-8R is powered by Suzuki's latest 776cc parallel twin DOHC engine, delivering smooth, controllable power across all RPMs. This engine features a 270-degree crankshaft that mimics the smooth power delivery and sound of a V-twin, making it an exhilarating ride at all speeds. Its compact design and the patented Suzuki Cross Balancer system ensure smooth operation and reduced vibrations, providing a comfortable ride even at higher revs.

The advanced Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) elevates the GSX-8R's performance with features like the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS), which allows riders to switch between different riding modes, and the Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS), enhancing stability and control under various conditions. Additionally, the Bi-directional Quick Shift (QS) system ensures smooth and quick gear shifts, allowing for a responsive and dynamic riding experience.

Dynamic Styling and Aerodynamics

The GSX-8R is designed to stand out with its futuristic sportbike look, paying homage to Suzuki's rich heritage. Its aerodynamic cowling, tested in wind tunnels, enhances stability and wind protection, while the sharp lines and slim bodywork give it a compact and sleek appearance. The vertically stacked hexagonal LED headlights offer excellent road visibility, and the LED rear lights and bold graphics complete the aggressive, ready-for-action look.

Equipped with a 5-inch color TFT LCD display, the GSX-8R offers a high-tech instrument panel that is easy to read, even while riding. Its modern features, including the sculpted fuel tank and comfortable rider seat, ensure that every ride is smooth and enjoyable.

Chassis and Suspension for Superior Handling

The GSX-8R's chassis is designed for optimal performance and handling. Built with a durable steel pipe frame, it offers both comfort and stability, whether navigating through city traffic or taking on winding mountain roads. The lightweight cast aluminium wheels paired with Dunlop RoadSport 2 tires provide superior grip and traction, while the advanced Hitachi Astemo SHOWA suspension system ensures smooth, controlled handling across all terrains.

With features like the adjustable preload rear suspension and lightweight aluminium swingarm, the GSX-8R offers precise handling and excellent stability, making it perfect for sport riding and long-distance touring.

Pricing and Availability

The all-new Suzuki GSX-8R is available in three striking colors: Metallic Matte Sword Silver, Metallic Triton Blue, and Metallic Matte Black No.2. Priced at ₹9,25,000 (ex-showroom Delhi), this sportbike is now available for purchase at all Suzuki Bike Zones across India.
