2025 marks 40 years of GSX-R; four decades of performance, passion, and pride. The last 40 years has seen countless championship victories at the highest level, innovative development, race-bred technologies, and over a million bikes sold worldwide. In celebration of this milestone anniversary, the GSX-R1000R returns. Though packed with modern technology it pays a fitting homage to its heritage with three special liveries. This is GSX-R - designed to perform, built to thrill.

It began in 1985 with the GSX-R750 and now this latest GSX-R continues the high-performance legacy with a 1,000cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, inline engine that is built to perform, both on the track and the road. It delivers high-performance and even more too, its reliability and winning potential have earned this model its enviable reputation in world endurance racing.

The new GSX-R1000R uses thin-wall, hollow camshafts operating light, F1-style pivoting finger followers. The lighter moving mass of these fingers allows maximum engine rpm and valve lift to be increased while improving valve response and maintaining accurate valve control. The camshaft intake and exhaust lift curves are optimised to achieve both engine output and compliance with Euro 5+ regulations. The overlap has been reduced and a wider cam chain reduces friction losses, cam sprockets have been reshaped accordingly. Each forged aluminium piston has short skirts, cutaway sides and a short, DLC coated wrist pin to reduce friction. The piston heads are reshaped to increase the compression ratio and accommodate the size of the larger 25mm exhaust valve diameter. The rib shape on the underside of the piston heads is changed. This reduces weight and improves output, vibration, and durability. The crankshaft design uses thicker journals at 37 mm, to accommodate higher loads. The crankcase is also redesigned in conjunction with the change to the new crankshaft.

Simple, compact and light, the centrifugally operated SR-VVT system is built into the intake cam sprocket and an adjacent guide plate. It uses 12 steel balls and slanted grooves to rotate the sprocket and retard the intake valve timing at a pre-set rpm, adding significantly to high-rpm power without sacrificing mid-range and lower-rpm power. The beauty of the SR-VVT system is in its compact simplicity, light weight, reliability and seamless operation. The system is built into existing parts, taking up no extra room in the engine, and the weight increase is minimal.

The 4-2-1 exhaust system uses a large diameter exhaust pipe, this contributes to high-performance and output while still complying with Euro 5+ regulations. In conjunction, the elliptical racing inspired catalytic converter in the collector is positioned close to the engine to facilitate quick heat up, to improve its performance. A pair of O₂ sensors are positioned in front and behind the catalytic converter helping it complying with Euro 5+ regulations. A benefit of this layout is that it allows the design freedom to make the silencer body more compact, reducing its capacity to 5.5 litres while still retaining performance. The shot-blasted titanium silencer features a slim and stylish design that balances with the bikes overall attacking stance, a features a high quality etched GSX-R logo.

The new Suzuki GSX-R1000 is equipped with Showa BFF (Balance Free Front) forks and BFRC (Balance Free Rear Cushion) lite shock, developed for racing. Both improve cornering traction by delivering smoother, more controlled travel and better reaction to surface imperfections. You'll also find the GSXR1000R features radial-mounted Brembo braking for superior stopping power. Each radial-mounted Brembo monoblock front brake caliper has four opposed 32mm diameter pistons acting on a 320mm diameter floating-mount disc for strong stopping power. Each disc features a hybrid mounting system using a 50/50 combination of 5 spring-loaded floating pin mounts and 5 Brembo T-drive floating mounts.

Winglets on the front cowling direct airflow and generate downforce at high speeds to enhance stability. Made of 'dry carbon' with a hollow structure and produced in Japan, the size and shape of the winglets was developed through a long process of experimental builds and thorough testing to achieve the optimum effect without making the handling feel heavy. Quality is far above "wet carbon" products, which are often made with cheap material with carbon attached. These winglets adopt the same basic design as those used by Team Suzuki CN Challenge.

Select between three modes that deliver different power characteristics to match the conditions, surface or preferred riding style: A – mode for Active, B – mode for Base and C – mode for Comfort. The effect is particularly noticeable when turning the throttle from slightly open to when it reaches the top of the mid-speed range under acceleration. The settings for each mode have been thoroughly tested to perform optimally on the GSX-R1000R, maximising its capabilities, building in the flexibility to adapt to changing weather, road and riding conditions.

The ABS system enhances control by allowing ABS activation not only when travelling in a straight line, but also when leaning into a corner. The ABS unit’s ECU determines when intervention is called for by monitoring input from the front and rear wheel speed sensors along with vehicle posture data from the IMU. When it is, the ABS unit’s hydraulic unit controls brake pressure to reduce the impact of sudden braking force, making the bike less likely to try to push itself upright or lose traction. As a result, the bike maintains its radius and lean angle, helping to support the rider in tracing their intended line through the corner.

The new Suzuki GSX-R1000R features an impressive launch control system. This system makes it easier for a racer to get a good start in closed-course competition by automatically limiting engine rpm and optimising torque delivery while the rider holds the throttle twist grip wide open and concentrates on feeding in the clutch lever. Launch control is activated using a switch on the right handlebar. The system then monitors throttle twist grip position, throttle valve position, engine rpm, gear position, front wheel speed and rear wheel speed. At the moment of launch, the system is set to hold the engine at ideal rpm for an effective launch. Once the clutch lever is released and the clutch engaged, rpm is no longer limited but throttle opening is controlled to keep the engine at the ideal torque for strong acceleration. The launch control system not only helps the rider get a good initial launch, but also helps reduce excessive front wheel lift, by working with the lift limiter function and controlling engine torque while monitoring input from several sensors. Launch control automatically disengages when the rider upshifts into third gear or closes the throttle.

The Smart TLR Control system compromises three features: Traction Control, Lift Limiter and Roll Torque Control. The traction control is designed to provide greater stability and enable the rider to control the GSX-R with confidence in varying riding conditions while experiencing less stress or fatigue. It offers 10 mode settings and can also be turned off. The higher number the mode, the faster the control takes effect and the more proactive the system is in limiting wheel spin. It monitors wheel speed, engine RPM, throttle position, gear position and uses data from the IMU.

The Lift Limiter system allows riders to dial in how much, if any, front wheel lift they want to experience when accelerating hard. It works silently in the background, with its settings being determined by the Traction Control level setting. It monitors engine RPM, throttle position, gear position, clutch switch status, wheel speed sensors and the IMU to determine the appropriate amount of output to develop in response to the electronic throttle control. Thorough testing went into tuning the respective settings for this, providing all the acceleration you’d expect from a GSX-R but with a wide range of lift limiter settings.

Roll Torque Control is an intelligent system that, based on data received from the IMU and wheel speed sensors, calculates the bike’s lean angle and speed to predetermine what level of power output is optimal for a given corner. It works in conjunction with traction control to help deliver a sense of stability through the corner.

The bi-directional quickshifter system enables the rider to shift up or down without operating the clutch lever or throttle. The system automatically interrupts power delivery just long enough to unload the transmission gear dogs and allow a clean upshift, producing smoother, almost uninterrupted acceleration. For quicker and smoother downshifts, the system automatically opens the throttle valves just enough to increase rpm and match engine speed to the next-lower gear ratio without manually blipping the throttle or using the clutch. This hands-free automatic blipping function combines seamlessly with engine braking to create a highly satisfying experience.

The Slope Dependent Control System helps prevent rear wheel lift when braking while riding downhill, resulting in a more stable ride. The ABS unit uses input from the IMU to monitor the bike’s posture and, when the rider applies the brakes, its hydraulic unit controls brake pressure to deliver the optimum setting to match the angle of inclination. The amount of rear lift control is continuously adjusted to match the current slope angle, and this results in supporting more stable braking.
