Deliveries to Suzuki dealerships of the new GSX-8S will start next week. The wait is over, the street fighter completes the series of launches of Hamamatsu's 2023 novelties, which began with the V-Strom 650 Explorer and continued with the V-Strom 1050 MY23 range and with the adventurous V-Strom 800DE. With the latter, the GSX-8S shares the technical platform, which has as its main element an innovative parallel twin-cylinder engine with 270° crank mechanism with exceptional efficiency.The GSX-8S plays a strategic role for Suzuki, because it enters as an absolute protagonist in what is one of the most important and lively segments of the market, that of mid-engined naked bikes. The GSX-8S is placed halfway between the timeless SV650 and the gritty GSX-S950 and GSX-S1000, with which it shows a certain family feeling in terms of aesthetics.The new street fighter marks an evolution of Hamamatsu's most recent stylistic features and adopts essential superstructures that express dynamism. The pointed top fairing, with overlapping LED headlights, position lights and arrows, together with the 14-litre tank and side scoops, contrasts with the minimalist tail and the short and compact exhaust terminal, to make the bike appear leaning forward and ready to shoot.With their streamlined shapes, the superstructures leave both the mechanics and the frame and seat post structure visible, made with a tubular steel trellis.The light and compact engine is a 776 cm3 parallel twin with DOHC DOHC distribution and four valves per cylinder. The technicians have chosen a configuration that manages to combine a generous throw from low revs and a lot of vivacity in the long run with extraordinary efficiency. Maximum torque is 78 Nm at 6,800 rpm, while peak power is 61 kW (83 hp) at 8,500 rpm, with consumption of 4.2 l/100 km in the WMTC mixed cycle. The bike is also available in a depowered 35 kW (48 hp) version for A2 license holders.

The Suzuki GSX-S750 represents a unique proposal in the current motorcycle scene. There are no other naked four-cylinder machines, a legendary type of motorcycle, which has written epic pages of two-wheeled history. The formula is still winning, because it skilfully combines breathtaking emotions and usability, putting high performance within everyone's reach. And today Suzuki makes this model even more desirable with the new YUGEN: TITANIUM and CARBON versions.But what is the meaning of the word YUGEN? YUGEN in Japanese art indicates "mysterious abilities that can not be described in words". YUGEN has been created for all those motorcyclists who have a passion for refined technical details and want to drive a performance bike, exclusive and treated in detail. The new versions arrive on the market thanks to the success of the previous one, with an even greater customer advantage and an incredibly rich endowment, capable of embellishing the GSX-S 750 with several original accessories and some SC-Project details.
"It has been three decades, with more than a million editions sold, since the GSX-R line was born. And a decade and a half has elapsed since the first GSX-R1000 transformed the open sportbike class forever. Built to Own the Racetrack, the GSX-R1000 captured the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship in its debut year asserting its claim as The King of Sportbikes. This motorcycle’s chassis forms the lightest, the most compact, the most aerodynamic and the best-handling GSX-R1000 ever. Cradled in this aluminum frame is an advanced engine that uses an exclusive Variable Valve Timing system and Ride-by-Wire throttle bodies for a wide spread of power while delivering smooth and precise throttle response Using an Inertial Measuring Unit (IMU) the GSX-R1000’s advanced electronics package includes selectable performance modes so the motorcycle enhances and fine tunes rider inputs. The six-axis IMU lets the GSX-R1000 recognize its position on the street or race track to help the rider achieve an extraordinary level of riding performance."
During this month of March, the Suzuki news is arriving rapidly at the official dealership network. After the debut of the V-Strom 1050 MY23 range and V-Strom 650 Explorer in the showrooms, it is now the turn of the adventurous V-Strom 800DE.This bike plays a key role for Suzuki. On the one hand, the V-Strom 800DE is at the heart of the Sport Enduro Tourer family, slotting between the dynamic V-Strom 650 (XT and Explorer) and the new arrivals V-Strom 1050 and V-Strom 1050DE. On the other hand, it marks the market entry of a new platform, also shared with the GSX-8S, a street fighter expected to be on the road in a short time.

The bike is also available in a depowered 35 kW (48 hp) version for A2 license holders.
The 999 cm3 Euro 5 engine of the GSX-S950 is offered in two power levels, with 70 or 35 kW. This Suzuki is the most powerless motorbike in the list, the only one that can be purchased by A2 license holders capable of giving the thrills and exhilarating sound that only a thousand can offer. Anyone can choose the GSX-S950 that best suits their needs and feel part of an authentic myth, knowing they can count on perfect tuning for their level of experience.The full power version has a maximum power of 70 kW (95 HP) at 7,800 rpm and a maximum torque of 92 Nm at 6,500 rpm, while the weakened version has 35 kW (47.5 HP) at 6,100 rpm and 75 Nm at 3,250 rpm. In both cases, the engine exploits the high displacement to its advantage to respond promptly from low revs and ensure extraordinary smooth running.The street fighter's engine is a close relative of the one that allowed Suzuki to win the 20th World Endurance Championship in its history in 2021, thanks to a perfect balance between performance and reliability.The chassis of the GSX-S950 also derives from that of the multi-victorious GSX-R1000. The lightweight and sturdy double-beam frame is made of aluminum, the same high-quality material also used for the swingarm. The latter acts through a lever on a shock absorber that can be adjusted in spring preload and in the hydraulic brake in extension. Its calibration and that of the 43 mm KYB upside-down fork are optimized to work best with Dunlop Roadsport 2 radial tires fitted as original equipment and designed specifically for the GSX-S950.The braking system features a pair of 310 mm floating front discs on which four-piston monobloc and radial-mount callipers produced by Tokico act.
