The engine from the GSX-R has been stripped of power and given even more smoothness. You don't miss the first, but enjoy the second all the more. All in all, the GSR certainly offers enough potential for every performance level on public roads, and you certainly won't go wrong with it on race tracks either.

All this comes in the "+" version with good equipment and technical precision made in Japan in the form of a great riding machine in the showrooms. A great motorbike!
