Suzuki Unveils New Sport Tourer GSX-S1000GT

Suzuki Motor Corporation has launched its new sport tourer with a brand-new concept, the GSX-S1000GT, fully remodelled from the GSX-S1000F. Starting in October 2021, the model will be marketed worldwide.

The new GSX-S1000GT is a sport tourer with reinforced features and functions for sport touring, inheriting the DNA of supersport bikes. The new model has been engineered for both ease of everyday usage, and comfortability and high-speed stability during long touring. The newly adopted S.I.R.S. electronic controls and Suzuki’s first 6.5-inch full-color TFT LCD screen instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity, are highlighted features for the concept. The styling design reflects an outstanding and bold appearance of a typical sport tourer, while featuring sharp, flowing lines that convey its agile sportiness.
The 999cm³ four-stroke liquid-cooled DOHC 4-valve inline-four engine, delivering abundant power throughout its operating range, has smooth torque characteristics that work linearly from low speeds to top end, providing an exciting acceleration feeling. The engine is mounted on a lightweight yet highly rigid frame, which makes the GSX-S1000GT easier to use in everyday riding, while increasing stability on winding roads and highways.
To reduce fatigue in long-distance touring, the model adopts floating handlebars, rubber-covered footrests, and custom grab bars, which minimize the vibrations transmitted from the bike to the rider and passenger. Furthermore, the handlebars have been widened and the grips have been made closer to the rider, realizing an upright riding position more suitable for touring. The aerodynamic windscreens and custom designed seats also contribute to rider’s comfortability.
In addition, a wide variety of genuine accessories, including those developed uniquely for the new GSX-S1000GT, are available for customization in adding more comfort and convenience.
