SUZUKI GSX 8S 2023

Suzuki has designed a brand-new parallel twin 776cm3 DOHC, 4-valve-per-cylinder engine for the GSX-8S. It features a long-stroke configuration that delivers a fine balance of smooth, controllable power from low rpm and the pleasant feeling of free-revving performance through to the high end.

In engineering a brand-new model from the ground up, the goal was to design a compact, lightweight chassis engineered to maximize agility, comfort, utility, and reassuring riding pleasure. Every aspect was focused on achieving great handling and control whether riding solo or carrying a passenger. The development of the chassis layout began with devising the core structure of the new frame and swing arm. The resulting frame is strong and highly rigid. The swingarm, designed exclusively for the GSX-8S, was optimized to perform ideally on the street. Other layout considerations covered everything from achieving the right riding position to the selection of the wheels, tyres, and suspension settings. And it extended to striking a harmonious relationship between the chassis, the new engine, and the advanced controls of the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.).

With progressive features ranging from its brand-new parallel twin engine, robust frame, uniquely shaped aluminium swingarm, inverted front forks, and colour TFT LCD multifunction instrument panel, to advanced electronic control systems that include Suzuki Drive Mode Selector, the Suzuki Traction Control System, and Suzuki’s Bi-Directional Quick Shift system, the GSX-8S instantly sends the message that it is set to usher in an exciting new era of riding pleasure.
