With the introduction of two motorcycles, Suzuki fills out the void that has been long existent in their 1000cc line up. Enter, the GSX-S1000F and GSX-S1000. The Japanese motorcycle maker showcased the GSX-S1000 yesterday and it hosts the same inline-four cylinder engine from the 2008 Suzuki GSX-R1000. Although Suzuki is yet to reveal the power and torque figures, the fact that it has been retuned for a street credibility is certain.
In fact, that isn’t the only change and the new GSX-S1000 isn’t a mere rebadged version of the GSX-R. Suzuki has built it on an entirely new platform making the machine more roadster than streetfighter. Further changes include the addition of a three-way selectable traction control system and ABS in the aptly christened Suzuki GSX-S1000. This new roadster gets KYB shocks that come with adjustable preload and rebound making it more fitting for street use. Braking duties are performed by Brembo monoblock callipers.
Along with the GSX-S1000, Suzuki also took the wraps off its sport-tourer GSX-S1000F which essentially same underneath as its roadster sibling. It uses the same purpose-built chassis as the GSX-S1000 and the engine that from the 2008 GSX-R1000. In fact, it has the same suspension and brake setup as well. The Suzuki GSX-S1000F will go up against the Honda VFR 800 in the international market.
While success of both these motorcycles will depend a lot on how Suzuki prices, the fact that the Japanese motorcycle maker is on a model offensive is clear, not just in the international market but also in India mind you. With the GSX-R1000 already on sale in India, we can expect both these motorcycles to come to Indian shores in 2015 too.
