Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2008

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 2008

Suzuki does not do things by halves and takes first place here. But much more important is the acceleration out of the bend. 185 hp or not. In the past, the GSX-R had an advantage here because of its longer-stroke engine. This has not changed in 2007.

Optimum power curve

three mappings

good gearbox

massive power

peak power

anti-hopping clutch

electronic steering damper.
