S
uzuki has today an-
nounced details and
pricing for the new
range of Suzuki GSX-S1000
models. The GSX-S1000 will
come in three guises—the
naked S1000 and S1000
ABS, and the fully-faired
1000F ABS—with a starting
price of just $9999 for the
1000S.
The GSX-S1000 takes its
four-cylinder engine from the
legendary GSX-R1000K5, a
machine lauded for its incred-
ible midrange and top-end
punch. Suzuki has retuned
the machine via different cam-
shafts for more bottom-end
punch, and fitted the three-
stage Suzuki Advanced Trac-
tion Control System, which
is changeable via a switch
mounted on the handlebar.
Also fitted to the S1000 range
is Brembo Monobloc brakes,
fully-adjustable 43mm forks
and a preload and compres-
sion damping adjustable rear
shock.
The GSX-S1000 will come
in Metallic Triton Blue and
Metallic Triton Gray color
schemes, while the S1000
ABS and fully-faired 1000F
ABS will get an added color
scheme of Pearl Mira (red
and black).
The new range of GSX-
S1000 machines will hit
dealer floors towards the end
of September.
Suzuki is releasing the
GSX-S1000 for just $9999.
