19L Fuel Tank
The stylish new fuel tank increases capacity to 19L, reducing the frequency of refueling stops without increasing the size of its appearance.
Independent Rider and Passenger Seats
The new rider's seat is designed for comfortable sport riding. It offers greater support toward the rear edge, freedom of movement, and is covered in a skin that provides positive grip. The separate pillion seat includes a hand strap for the passenger.
The Beauty of Intelligent Control Systems
The advanced electronic systems of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) let you optimize performance characteristics to best suit your riding style, your level of experience, and the riding conditions. This makes the GSX-S1000 more controllable, more predictable, and less tiring to ride in daily use and on longer outings. And it adds up to a more exciting, confident and fun riding experience.
Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS)
Freely choose between three different power output modes. All three ultimately deliver maximum engine output, but offer control over the level of throttle response and torque characteristics when accelerating. This empowers you to maximize the GSX-S1000's capabilities as a superior naked sport bike but enhances the overall riding experience by building in the flexibility to prioritize sports or stability characteristics to better match your intended riding style or adapt to changing weather, road and other conditions.
Mode A
(Active)
Delivers the sharpest throttle response as you open the throttle. Torque characteristics are finely tuned to deliver exciting acceleration when hitting the throttle hard, such as when participating in track day events or enjoying a sporty run on winding roads in good weather.
Mode B
(Basic)
Features softer throttle response and a more linear power delivery curve as you open the throttle. Settings are tuned to fit a wide range of riding styles and conditions, and to help make the bike more controllable in everyday riding.
Mode C
(Comfort)
Offers yet softer throttle response and more gentle torque characteristics, with power increasing in a directly linear fashion as the throttle is opened. This mode is useful when riding on wet or slippery surfaces, or even when you want to relax on the way home after a long outing.
Five-mode Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS)
STCS is programmed to continuously monitor front and rear wheel speed, engine RPM, throttle position and gear position, and designed to limit power to prevent slipping when it determines an imminent loss of traction. This enhances stability to give you more confident control with less stress and fatigue. Now featuring a wider selection of five mode settings, this updated version of STCS to better fit a more diverse variety of riding conditions, styles, and level of experience. The system can be also turned off when preferred. The higher number the mode, the faster control kicks in and the more proactive the system is in limiting wheel spin.
Note: The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider's throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip
Bi-directional Quick Shift System
This distinctive standard-equipment feature lets you shift up or down more quickly and easily without the need to operate the clutch or throttle. When activated, Quick Shift automatically interrupts power delivery just long enough to produce smoother, almost uninterrupted acceleration when you shift up. When decelerating, the system automatically opens the throttle valves just enough to increase rpm and match engine speed to the next-lower gear ratio. The result of this hands-free automatic blipping function combines seamlessly with engine braking to create a highly satisfying experience when downshifting. Bi-directional Quick Shift works in concert with SDMS to bring you even greater riding fun with a more linear feel.
A conventional transmission requires five manual operations to shift up and four to shift down. The Bi-directional Quick Shift System cuts either to just a single foot movement, lessening rider fatigue by greatly reducing the number of required operations in situations that call for repeated gear shifts. The rider can take advantage of the system or opt to turn it off when preferring to shift in the conventional manner.
Ride-by-wire Electronic Throttle System
By leveraging the 32-bit ECM to control throttle valve operation, this new system precisely controls engine power output in relation to throttle action. The system's finer control also allows it to be tuned to best match each of the SDMS modes. The overall result is linear power delivery that responds faithfully to your intentions, whether riding on the street or heading out to enjoy a sporty run, as well as improved controllability when opening the throttle while cornering.
Low RPM Assist
Employs TI-ISC (Throttle-body Integrated Idle Speed Control) to seamlessly boost engine speed when pulling away from a standing start or riding at low speeds. Updated to work in harmony with the Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS) to realize smoother, easier starts and even better suppress engine stalls, the system also helps enhance control in stop-and-go traffic.
Suzuki Easy Start System
With Suzuki Easy Start, one quick press of the starter button starts the engine without having to pull in the clutch lever and it works when the transmission is in neutral. As a function used on a daily basis, this system makes your riding experience all the more fun and hassle free.

An Engine that's Ready to Rule the Streets
The GSX-S1000 is more than capable of delivering the exciting riding experience and ideal naked sport bike performance for today's riding environment. Power is supplied by a high-performance 999cm3 four-stroke DOHC liquid-cooled inline-four engine that inherits true winning superbike DNA. This street-tuned engine is based on core architecture that benefits from know-how acquired over decades of developing the GSX-R1000 to win countless production race victories, as well as advanced technologies developed for MotoGP racing.
Every aspect of performance has been refined. Overall power output is increased and is stronger through the low- to mid-range engine speeds most commonly used in daily riding. A broader, smoother torque curve featuring greater cumulative torque production consistently delivers abundant power throughout the engine's operating range and particularly shines in the mid to high rpm range. And all this is achieved while satisfying Euro 5 emissions standards.
Revised exhaust and intake cam profiles decrease the amount of lift and reduce valve lift overlap to achieve a better overall balance of performance and controllability across a broad range of engine speeds, while also contributing to improved emissions performance.
Changes to the internal structure of the new air cleaner box help improve power output characteristics. A change to the bore size of the new electronic throttle bodies helps achieve a better balance between idling throttle response and power output characteristics.
New exhaust system
While retaining its clean, sharp looks and exciting sound, the 4-2-1 exhaust system is completely redesigned and tuned to help satisfy Euro 5 emission standards, maximize overall performance and enhance the quality of its exhaust note. Changes include a new layout behind the collector, a new chamber structure, and the addition of a second catalytic converter inside the chamber. The redesigned structure of the connecting pipes between cylinder pairs increase the performance of the secondary air injection system, which improves the ability to purify exhaust gases. In addition, the collector is now marginally longer and the Suzuki Exhaust Tuning (SET) system positioned a little differently.
Suzuki Clutch Assist System (SCAS)
The slipper clutch helps provide smoother deceleration by partially disengaging to mitigate the effect of engine braking when downshifting. This is complemented by a new assist function that increases the clutch's clamping force under acceleration and thereby allows the use of softer springs, realizes a light touch to clutch lever operation and reduces left hand fatigue in traffic jams or on longer rides.
